Storytime with the Author — Julie Fogliano

Don’t miss out on a morning of heartwarming hilarity as we welcome New York Times bestselling author Julie Fogliano for a storytime with her fantastic new picture book: Because of a Shoe!

Even when it’s time to put on our favorite shoes and leave the house, and it turns into a tantrum where someone can’t stop screaming, or flopping on the floor, or throwing said shoe across the room, and someone is making their maddest face, and everyone else is waiting . . . Even then, nothing can come between the loving bond of a mother and their child. Not even a shoe.

With expressive artwork, beautiful writing, and a touching message about motherly love, it’s a truly unforgettable read. Come listen in!
