Honestly.
Is there anything more perfect on a rainy Friday morning than hanging out at one of your favorite #indie #bookstores, @birdhousebooksatx, with Mae-Mae on your lap signing copies of your new #picturebook?!?
(Well, other than #reading and getting some early #holidayshopping done?)
I got to do it all! Thank you, Abby, for your incredible support of #localauthors and #localillustrators. I can`t wait for our ONE SPARK #storytime at @birdhousebooksatx on Sat. Dec. 5th. Please join us!
