+shopthebookworm Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Move over 'Magic Tree House'; there's a new historic adventure in town and the kids from Snipesville aren't pulling any punches! ---*--- What a nightmare. Hannah Dias, California Girl with attitude, and Alex, her laid-back brother, have moved from exciting San Francisco to boring Snipesville. Life doesn't improve when they meet Brandon, a dorky kid who is plotting his escape from the Deep South, and the weird Professor. Suddenly, the kids are catapulted to World War Two England. They fall into a world of dragon ladies, bomb blasts, ugly underwear, stinky sandwiches, painful punishments, and non-absorbing toilet paper. They learn so much more than they could ever learn in a history class. Not that they want to learn it. But they can't go home until they find George Braithwaite... whoever he is, and whatever he has to do with Snipesville. ---*--- Join us Saturday, March 26 as Author Annett Laing signs books 1 and 2 of her series, The Snipesville Chronicles. We know these epic, historic adventures will prove to be not only entertaining but educational for your child. So join us as we step back in time with Annette Laing and her cast of characters in "Don't Know Where, Don't Know When" and "A Different Day, A different Destiny." *You can learn more about the author by visiting her website:www.annettlaing.com* PLUS... Life is about finding out what you love to do, and little Jimmy has it all figured out. When he decides he wants to become a clown, his parents encourage him to try his hand at Clown School. In this charming tale, Jimmy learns you can't always succeed, failure is an option; but as long as you follow your dreams and keep trying you can do anything you set your mind to. Signing the 26th, Vanessa Lee brings us a wonderful story with "Funny Jimmy" alongside Annette Laing and "The Snipesville Chronicles; The Book Worm is thrilled to host another Children's Literature Weekend! BUT WAIT...THERE'S MORE... Kennesaw Taylor, author of the hillarious title "I'm Ugly and Broke" brings us his latest release, "The Redneck Cooker: A Deep Down Southern Cookbook." "Inside you will find some of my favorite recipes..." Kennesaw says. "I normally don't use a recipe. I simply throw things together haphazardly until they taste good. It's worked well for me for thirty years and I've never had any complaints and never poisoned anyone. It worked equally well for my Mother and Grandmother." Forget margarin, put down the sugar substitute and get ready to delve into some seriously southern cuisine with Kennesaw Taylor, March 26th from 12:00 until 2:00 at The Book Worm! See You Tomorrow!
