ALA 2024:Signing Books That Aren’t Even Out Yet

Are you attending the American Library Association Annual Conference? I’ll be there and I’m signing two books that aren’t even out yet.
Stop by, say hi, and be one of the first humans to have a copy.

**Saturday, June 29th from 10:30-11:00am (ABRAMS Booth #1539)**
This book is dedicated to all the educators out there. It’s about the high-intensity (and highly ridiculous) world of lining up. It doesn’t come out until 2025, but I’ll be signing a limited batch of copies on Saturday. Get one before they’re gone!

**Sunday, June 30th from 12:30-1:00pm (PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE Booth #1717)**
This one is an ode to some of my favorite picture books from the past, especially William Steig’s Amos & Boris. It comes out in August, but you can get a copy early by stopping by the Penguin Random House booth on Sunday.
