Join us in welcoming one of Alaska's most prolific children's author! Author of many of our favorite picture books - The Littlest Airplane and All Aboard the Alaska Train among many others - Brooke Hartman will be at Fireside Books on Saturday, February 28th from 1:00-4:00pm to sign copies of her two newest books: Help Me Find My Hamster! and Exca-Gator!
About Help Me Find My Hamster!:
Readers, your help is needed--something terrible has happened! The narrator is missing their pet hamster, and the snuggable, huggable pint-sized pet was spotted in this book.
Fuzzy floof ears, a nibble nubbin nose, precious peanut paws, and a bitty button tail seem to hint that it's somewhere nearby.
But do itty bitty ears always belong to a hamster? When you spot a soft snoot or cute padded paws, will they be attached to a pocket pet, or something much wilder? Watch out! You never know what could be lurking around the corner. That tuft of a tail might just belong to a grizzly bear's behind!
Prepare to laugh along as clues to the narrator's missing furry friend reveal ever larger and wilder creatures in this surprising story that encourages readers to stretch their imagination, make predictions, and always expect the unexpected.
About Exca-Gator!:
He's an alligator . . . he operates an excavator . . . he is EXCA-GATOR!
An adorable picture book perfect for fans of Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site and Crocodiles Need Kisses Too!
In the deepest jungle swamp,
Where the beasties howl and stomp,
From a little swamp home door,
Comes a mighty gator ROAR!
Exca-Gator is so excited for a new day of building and constructing with all of his buds! He may be even a little too excited, when he overestimates his abilities and causes a big old construction site mess. Can Exca-Gator make things right with his friends and save the day?
Told in rhythmic bouncing rhyme from Brooke Hartman and with gorgeous playful art from prolific picture book illustrator Michael Slack, this book is a can't-miss pick for any young readers who love books about construction vehicles and adorable animals.
