A tribute to planting seeds of gratitude, an uplifting introduction to inspirational Black women in history and a beloved bear that eats his way through a rainbow of colors.
For many of us, we have standout picture books from our childhood that have passed down from generations. It’s a joy to unlock four new children’s titles – live at DBF! Join authors Henry Cole, Jorge Redmond, Michael Sampson and Deborah Wiles for high-energy performances of their children’s picture books.
The panel discussion will be held on Saturday, October 5th at 11:15 AM at the Children & Young Adult Stage in the Lower Level of the First Baptist Church of Decatur. Following the panel, authors will proceed to signing tables to autograph books.
