Stay-In Storytime
From author Matt DeLaPena:
Dear parents, teachers, librarians, youngsters:
Thursday morning an awesome group of children's book authors are doing a storytime over on Instagram Live. Each of us will read one of our picture books and take questions. I've decided to read Last Stop on Market Street and maybe share some of the secrets about the book. Please join us. And help spread the word so we can reach as many stuck-at-home readers as possible! (Also, parents-who-are-now-also-teachers deserve a tiny break!) See you on Instagram Live at mattdelapena!
