Book Signing with MK Smith Despres Monday August 12 2024 from 4-5

Join Us for a Magical Book Signing Event!

We are thrilled to announce that MK Smith Despres will be joining us at our store to sign their enchanting debut picture book, “Night Song”!

Date: August 12th, 2024
Time: 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM

A sad sack frog, who bemoans his inability to sing like a bird, discovers the vital role he's meant to play in his woodland home in this debut picture book from Mk Smith Despres, gorgeously illustrated by award-winning artist Hyewon Yum.

Every morning as the sun rises, Bernardo the frog loves greeting the day by listening to the beautiful birdsong that fills the woods with joy. Inspired, Bernardo attempts to sing, too... but his croaking voice doesn't quite have the same effect. No matter what he does, Bernardo feels graceless and like he just doesn't add up. Dejected and down in the dumps, Bernardo sees no place for himself, until a woodland neighbor praises the hushed sounds that dusk brings, thus awakening Bernardo to his place in the woods' great symphony.

Come and meet the talented author behind this beautifully illustrated tale of Bernardo the frog, who finds his unique place in the woodland symphony.
