A. G. Ford Coming to the Smith Library
Parents,
Smith is fortunate to have illustrator A.G. Ford come to speak to our third and fourth graders in the library next month. All students at Smith (not just 3rd and 4th) have the chance to pre-order his books and get them autographed! Books make excellent birthday gifts for your own children or their friends.
To learn more about A.G. Ford and his books, you can visit http://www.agfordillustration.com/ This wonderful illustrator is very talented and lives right here in Frisco! All books orders are due in the library by October 16. Thanks so much for celebrating reading and illustrating with us!!!
