Library Visit on Oct. 16, 2009

The event was held at the Savage Public Library and then again at the Elkridge Public Library. I read from both BE GENTLE WITH THE DOG, DEAR! and PANDA AND POLAR BEAR, and spoke about the process of publishing. After that I took challenges from the crowd to draw whatever they wanted me to. I drew T-rex but it turned out looking like Barney (Let us not forget that Barney is a T-rex).

Book Signing at Hooray 4 Books in Alexandria, Virginia

On October 10, 2009, I visited Hooray for Books in Alexandria, Virginia.
I read PANDA AND POLAR BEAR and did some sketches and took questions. The store folks and visitors were so nice. I loved visiting Hooray for Books. I met a girl named Min Joo, she was adopted from Korea. I was excited that God has blessed her with loving parents.
