TSS: Chicken Butt’s Back!

Yesterday, my boys & I had the pleasure of meeting the author of Chicken Butt and Chicken Butt’s Back (amongst many others!) at One More Page Books yesterday.

My youngest son, Justin, has been obsessed with these books for some time. We’ve read each book dozens of times.  When he learned Erica was coming to our indie bookstore, he was ecstatic and began a countdown to “Chicken Butt Day!”

Yesterday, bright & early, I heard a the pitter patter of little feet, then thumping down the stairs, “It’s Chicken Butt day” shouted by the top of his lungs.  Although the event didn’t til the afternoon, Justin was ready to go!

When we arrived at the store, Justin introduced himself to Erica. He was so excited about the book that Erica did a little video of him talking about the book to post on her web site.  Once the video has been posted I’ll be sure to share it with you all.

Here are just a few pictures of the event:

Erica has hats made for each of her books. Here’s Erica & some of the children (Justin included) sporting the hats.

The funniest part of the day was when Erica introduced the children to Chicken Butt, a little chicken that shouts the famous lines from the book. The kids (mostly Justin) couldn’t stop playing with it.

Justin had both of his books signed & then we headed home.

Guess who came home with us:

(He had a long day)

And so did Justin!

A great event overall!

This week, I’ll be preparing to attend Book Expo America (BEA) in NY!

In case you missed it, here’s what happened last week on the blog:
