Henny and I had a great time this past
weekend at the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, MA. I am so
honored to have been asked to read Henny for Storytime, and we
sure had fun! We had lots of chicken-talk with the kids, and a book
signing. It was a thrill to see Henny in the bookshop!

spirit of things, as you can see….
