Meet Oliver Jeffers

Come by and meet world-renowned picture book author-illustrator, Oliver Jeffers!

Don’t miss out on the chance to meet world-renowned author-illustrator OLIVER JEFFERS as we celebrate his delightful picture book, I’m Very Busy: A (Nearly Forgotten) Birthday Book.

It’s Bridget’s birthday, and she thinks it would be fun to spend the day with friends. But Royal has places to go, Rodney has to see a man about a dog, Regis has to wash his hair, and Pearl has a list of items she needs to cross off as quickly as she can. Bridget’s friends are all too busy to hang out! Will she have to spend her birthday all alone?

It’s a poignant, boldly illustrated story that shows how friends are more important than the busyness of a day. Join us to hear all about this incredible tale from the mind behind Here We Are, The Day the Crayons Quit, and so many more beloved books. It’s going to be an event to remember!
