Hey Diddle….Wilbur!!!

Hey Diddle, Diddle.

The cat and the fiddle.

The cow jumped over….

…Wilbur!

Wilbur here…Do you like my crown?

I had fun at my first Virtual Story Time with TCP.

Thanks to Michele and Kristen at Phoenix Books in Essex, VT for hosting.

Thanks to all who joined us virtually in her studio.

She read.

She drew pictures.

She shared pictures.

Kids drew pictures and shared them from home.

Me…I sat on the floor of her studio and watched…

…I did not bark.

I did not beg for cookies.

I did not get into her trash.*

…Zoom-Zoom.

*Disclaimer: I did find part of a bagel in someone else’s trash on the way to her studio. It was delicious!

She said I was a good boy.

So, I’m invited to her next Virtual Story Time!!!

And you’re invited too!

Mother Goose lands in bookstores…Soon!

 

“While letting the traditional phrases work their magic, Pearson captures the spirit of the nonsense in lively ink drawings with watercolor washes. . . .  With plenty of intriguing characters and visual details to discover, here’s a lively interpretation of a classic nursery rhyme.”Booklist

 

My new book, Girls and Boys Come Out to Play will be available at your local indie bookstore

or wherever books are sold on

April 13th!!!

Mother Goose wants you to know that early copies will be available when you attend one of my virtual book events.
