My afternoon at The Children’s Museum of Manhattan
I spent last Sunday afternoon at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan doing an interactive story session. First we read from my new picture book celebrating the Big Apple, In New York (Knopf), and afterward, we broke out the art supplies and created maps of their favorite New York City sights. I had more fun than the kids. Looking forward to a return visit soon!
