Meet best-selling author-illustrator CHRIS VAN DUSEN and be our guest for a spectacular autographing event. Saturday October 22 2022 11am-1pm
Chris Van Dusen is a Maine author and illustrator of several highly acclaimed picture books, including the hugely popular Mercy Watson series. His newest Christmas Mercy book will be available! His book, If I Built a Car won the 2006. We love Circus Ship, which is about a circus ship running aground off the coast of Maine, and the poor animals are left on their own, but they soon win over the wary townspeople with their kind, courageous ways. His newest book Big Truck Little Island is about a big truck that gets stuck! How will the island residents get where they’re going? A tale of community and ingenuity and inspired by a true story. Down by the sea with Mr Magee is Chris' first children book. All of these will be available for him to sign and personalize at the store on October 22nd from 11-1
