Seattle poet and children's author Jack Prelutsky will read from "Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant: And Other Poems," his new children's book, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29 at the Ballard Branch.
This program is free and everyone is welcome. Registration is not required. Free parking is available at the branch. Doors will open at 6 p.m.
Each page in "Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant: And Other Poems" is about a creature that is part animal and part inanimate object. For instance, the "alarmadillos" have alarm clocks for bodies, and the "ballpoint penguins" can write with their beaks.
This event is presented in cooperation with the Secret Garden Bookshop. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
For more information, call the branch at (206) 684-4089.
Prelutsky is the author of more than 35 books of verse and editor of several poetry anthologies for children. His books have combined to sell more than a million copies. He was named Children's Poet Laureate by the Poetry Foundation in September 2006. He lives in Seattle.
