Join us with local guest author, Valerie Coulman, for an engaging time of stories together. As the writer of award-winning picture books for children, Valerie will share some of her own experiences. Then we’ll write a story together as we learn how books are made.
Valerie Coulman started by telling stories to her own children. In fact, her first book, When Pigs Fly, began as a bedtime story! Her other works include Sink or Swim, I Am a Ballerina, and her most recent title Dragons on the Inside (And Other Big Feelings). Coulman is a 2024 Oregon Book Award finalist.
