HI Nicholas-thanks for the message. I was hoping to send Paul Brett Johnson out in April. Would you all be interested in having him at the store? His latest book is a sequel to The Cow Who Wouldn't Come Down and it is called The Pig Who Ran A REd Light. It is a tour de force and we would love to be able to arrange something.
Let me know. All best,Debbie Hochman
