Join local author Megan Woodward, for a hilarious interactive reading of her picture book This Book is Definitely Not Cursed which will be followed by a creative group activity, a silly craft, and a Q&A with a puppet. Get ready to giggle!
Book description:
Engage even the most can’t-sit-still little ones with this laugh-out-loud, interactive picture book for fans of The Book with No Pictures and The Monster at the End of This Book!
If this book were cursed, then you would probably become cursed if you read it. You’d start to experience strange symptoms, like the wiggles, the giggles, trouble licking your elbow, and all your food tasting like cabbage. And then you would need to take silly steps to break the curse, like reading a goofy poem or smelling someone’s feet.
Luckily for you, there’s no need to worry because this book is definitely not cursed! So read away without fear.
Bio:
As a child, Megan Woodward lived and traveled all over the world, but always felt at home with her head in a book. She’s a comedy screenwriter and a freelance writer and editor, but her true love is writing for kids. This Book Is Definitely Not Cursed is her debut picture book. She lives with her son and two cats in Portland, Oregon, where it rains all the time, but never on her parade.
