With Hoogie and Helaine at Bookfest – Vaughan Public Library

Hoogie and I hung out the wonderful Helaine Becker (author of 60 books for children including Ode to Underwear, Gottika, A Porcupine in a Pine Tree, and Zoobots) at the Vaughan Public Library Bookfest on Sunday, Sept 28 between 1-4. (Yes, that is a full-sized … perhaps even larger than full-sized … Hoogie in all her pink glory).

Also on hand was talented author/illustrator Michael Moniz and a dozen or so other local authors. There was lots to do for booklovers, including a Storymob of The Paper Bag Princess. Helaine, Hoogie and I got to have our picture taken with the beautiful pink Queen, one of the Storymob participants.
