layed a super Royal Baker! Thanks to the team at the beautiful Barrington Books Retold (Garden City Center) in Cranston, RI, for hosting. The book’s uplifting message about kindness and community was the perfect way to kickoff Thanksgiving week and the holiday season.
Thanks to Richard, my knight in shining armor, and Rebecca and Peter, my happily ever after, for all your loving support!

I felt like royalty at this castle-themed school library on World Read Aloud Day! There was even a Knight in Shining Armor present! Thank you to the school’s wonderful librarian, kindergarteners and first graders. They were so attentive and asked great questions during the Q&A.
So much fun sharing my picture book with kids at the West Roxbury Branch of the Boston Public Library, where my love of picture books began! 
Trick or Treat! Even a storybook princess likes to change it up a bit at Halloween! Picture books make a sweet addition to your little pumpkin’s spooky trick or treat bag.

. . .then you were sure to find me on old Cape Cod at Eight Cousins Books in Falmouth, MA, on 7/16! Such a “quaint little village in the square!” I was delighted to share the story of the Princess and the Cafe on the Moat with so many wonderful families. Such a cozy bookshop, staffed by an extraordinary team of booksellers. Thanks for a delightful day!

Storytime was lots of fun with these characters! Even the grownups got in on the act. Thanks for hosting me in your beautiful space, Aesop’s Fable Books! Holliston, Mass. is lucky to have such a wonderful new bookstore downtown.

Psyched for storytime at Aesop’s Fable, a beautiful new bookstore in lovely downtown Holliston, MA. I’m bringing hats and props for a royally fun time. Mark your calendar for Saturday, June 1, at 10:30 am and come on by! bit.ly/aesop-storytime

Look what I found while stocking up on children’s books at the Strand Bookstore in New York City! This place really does have miles and miles of books, including The Princess and the Cafe on the Moat! Come on down!
