Peter Brown signing

Peter Brown will be on our conference faculty, and here's a chance to see him in action beforehand on Tuesday, Jan. 16 at 6:30 p.m. at the Ballard Library.

Here's what the folks at Secret Garden Books have to say about his latest:

When a mind-reading monkey asks his audience to imagine the most spectacular thing in history, the outcome is bound to be zany. Sure enough, this simple request evolves into the story of a roller-skating purple kangaroo who is searching for a dear friend.

We’re huge fans of the books Peter Brown has written and illustrated, including: The Flight of the Dodo, the Chowder series, and The Curious Garden. The Brooklynite is back in town to show us how he illustrated celebrity/comedian Michael Ian Black’s second book for kids (his first was Chicken Cheeks).

Mr. Brown will sign books for sale at the event.
