We spent Saturday afternoon at my favorite place.
Need a clue?
The Library at Academy Square! They did such a great job putting on this event for the kids.
Scavenger Hunt.
Miss Sadie the Library fortune teller looked into her crystal ball and found the perfect book for us to check out and take home to read.
Awesome illustrators and children’s book authors were on hand to sign books.
Of course, face (and arm) painting is a never fail kid pleaser. Mia looks otherworldly and O looks so menacing, doesn’t he?
Then, the greatest thing happened… Look who Owen got to meet!
Hola Skippito! WE LOVE SKIPPYJON JONES! Mucho!
Thanks again to the awesome volunteers, authors and illustrators who made the afternoon the perfect way to get kids even more excited about reading…
That looks so fun. I wish we would have known about it. Except we are out of town. I will have to mark my calendar for next year.
ReplyDeleteMy kids love skippy Jon jones too. We have a siamese and a chihuahua so it's pretty fitting for us.
Oh Boydie is so jealous of O for getting to hug Skippyjon! Those are his favorite!
ReplyDeleteGREAT picture of Mia!!! Looks like lots of fun!!!
