Dream Come True

Saturday was an exciting day for me. First it was the weekend of my 18th wedding anniversary and second I had a book signing at the Anchorage Museum. Having the art Museum invite me to come in with my book was a thrill!

They tied in my signing with the grand opening of the Imaginarium. Before, this kids hands on exhibit was downtown, hidden among shops. The recent Museum expansion brought the Imaginarium into the museum itself. There were adordable kids galore. I couldn't help but glow in their interest in the book. Some of the questions were a riot. My favorite was Allison who rested her head in her hands, tilted her head and asked me, " Why did you write a book?" Hmmm, good questions indeed!

Steve was outside the Museum enjoying the beautiful day when he caught a glimpse of Allison and her mom reading the book. A little native girl couldn't help but be curious. She was invited in to enjoy story time with Signore Greve and Celli. This will always be a prized picture for me!

Tomorrow I have an appointment with a group of pre-schoolers to read "If We Hopped on Our Bike..." I can't wait to tell you the stories that adventure will surely bring.
