Invitation Bookshop welcomes MARY BOONE to read from her new children’s book School of Fish. This event will include a signing and a fun craft for kids!
***RSVPs REQUIRED ON OUR WEBSITE***
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Students work together to raise salmon in the classroom. Emmy and her classmates have a special hands-on assignment: raising salmon and releasing them into the wild! At school, they learn about the biology, life cycle, and habitat of salmon, and watch them grow from egg stage to fry stage. When Release Day comes, the students wish their fry goodbye and good luck, hoping that one day they’ll find their way back to spawn.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Mary Boone has ridden an elephant, jumped out of an airplane, and baked dozens of cricket cookies—all in the interest of research for her books and magazine articles. She’s written sixty-nine nonfiction books for young readers. Mary lives in Tacoma, Washington, with her husband, Mitch, kids, Eve and Eli, and the world’s most opinionated airedale terrier, Ruthie Bader. School of Fish is Mary’s debut picture book.
