This Sunday, November 22nd, Temple Isaiah in my hometown of Lexington, MA will be holding its wonderful annual Holiday Marketplace. Before it starts–at 9:30 AM–there will be a Chanukah Story Time featuring a reading by moi of my picture book Esther’s Hanukkah Disaster.
After the story, I’ll ask young listeners to help the shopping-challenged Esther the Purple Gorilla plan her Hanukkah gift-buying for next year. Using props, I’ll ask questions like, “Esther has a friend who’s a snake. Would sneakers be a good gift? What? Why not?!!”
I’ll sign books (I hope). And afterwards, there will be a craft and snacks! What could be bad?

“Should Esther buy an umbrella for her friend the duck? What? Ducks don’t need umbrellas?!”
