Celebrate Elephabet this May!

Hey Beautiful Person! Did you know that May is Elephabet month in Portland? 

I have scheduled a whole bunch of free events all month to celebrate my new book!
Click here for the complete schedule--I'll post individual updates on the blog as their respective events near.

Today was the first installation of the diorama at Green Bean Books! If you don't know, Green Bean is the best little bookstore in Portland, located in the Alberta Arts District. Don't let the small size fool you--the selection is extremely well-curated, with not only a plethora of children's books, but great pre-teen and adult sections to boot. This store is a really fun destination because there are vending machines all over, dispensing moustaches and finger puppets and tiny treasures to the masses. The window displays are always fun, and when the weather's nice, there's a bush out back that doubles as a secret fort. There are two rotating diorama sites inside the store, and I was asked to create a little Elephabet scene in one this month! Here's the video of it in action:

The diorama will be up all month long, so make sure to go down and see it!

Green Bean has a lot of fun events too. Later on in the month, I'll be hosting the Pachyderm Portmanteau Party at- Green Bean Books!!
