A visit with Jan Brett






This past week I accompanied the first & second grade kids to Village Books to see Jan Brett, one of my favorite children's authors. The day was beautiful and we were able to get an excellent photo standing in front of her bus which had been totally decorated to advertise her tour and especially her latest book "The 3 Little Dassies". Jan is an incredible artist and she spent some time showing us how she drew a dassie and talked to everyone how she came up with the idea for this new book. We waiting in line with some of the kids for her to sign their books. I bought her new book to add to my slowly growing children book collection.
