3–10 year-olds and their parents are invited to join us for a reading & sketching time with author Oliver Gee and illustrator Lina Nordin Gee as they read their new picture book Grace the Giraffe in Paris. Following the reading, Lina will show participants how to draw a giraffe and then the pair will answer questions about what inspired this story.

Format

Oliver and Lina will join us directly from Paris on Zoom and will appear on the big screen in our library. Children and parents will be accommodated in the library, where we will set up tables for drawing.

Books

We will be selling all three books at the event, but you can also order your copy in advance from theearfultower.com. There are three books in the series from husband/wife duo Oliver and Lina Gee: Kylie the Crocodile, Roger the Liger, and Grace the Giraffe.
