Imagination Fridays are back! Join us Friday, September 20, 1:00 to 1:45 to meet Loren Long and hear about his new book, "The Yellow Bus", in which a forgotten school bus finds joy and purpose in unexpected places. The stunning black-and-white illustrations erupt into color when the yellow bus finds joy and the author’s note tells how Loren built an entire tiny town as a model for the illustrations. Loren will introduce his new book and his process of writing and illustrating, invite children to sketch, and answer questions.
Imagination Fridays is co-sponsored by the Tucson Festival of Books and Worlds of Words/University of Arizona and will occur one Friday a month from 1:00-1:45 pm, September to December, with an author and/or illustrator to introduce a new book. Add excitement to Fridays with world-renowned children’s authors and illustrators to promote new books and encourage children as readers, writers, and illustrators.
