This “Storytime” for Parents and Caregivers is going to have it all! Me reading a Halloween selection from CHOOSE THIS NOW! Ananda Lima reading on Halloween from CRAFT and, I hope, from one or two of my favorite of her parenting poems, too! BABIES IN HALLOWEEN COSTUMES! That’s right. Please come to our adult storytime, where the readings and conversation will be for you, but no one cares if you baby pukes. Although please dress them up in their Halloween costume—maybe you don’t want puke on that.

Usually, I moderate the conversations at these storytimes at Astoria Bookshop, but I am going to sneak in my own reading at this one because…Halloween. And because the reading is ON MY BIRTHDAY.
