Meet the Author Storytime with Brian Lies - Bats at the Ballgame
Start: 6:00 pm
Highlands Ranch: Brian Lies is the award-winning author/illustrator of the New York Times bestseller Bats at the Beach, and he has written and illustrated more than twenty books for children. Lies will read and sign his delightful new picture book Bats at the Ballgame ($16.99 Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). You’ll never forget your first game: the green so green, the presence of heroes past, and togetherness with family and friends, rooting for the home team. But are humans are the only ones who enjoy America’s national pastime? Grab your bat—the other kind—and your mitt, and join these captivating bats as they flutter off to watch their all-stars compete. How about a mothdog? Or some Cricket Jack? In sweeping compositions that transport fans to the rightside-up and upside-down world of bats at play, Brian Lies treats his young fans to a whole new ballgame. Visit Brian Lies’s website.
