The Capital Region’s premier independent children’s book store will graciously host the release of the second book in the series: “Parmesan Pig Saw What Was Needed.”
Celebrate the new school year and stop by with young ones in your circles. Grab a copy and have it personally signed by the author. Both book 1 and book 2 will be readily available.
ADDITIONALLY - Half of all proceeds will be donated to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation), to support young type-1 diabetic children.
While book 1 in the series focuses on mental health themes, book 2 explores the social scene. Parmesan Pig learns from the perspective of others as they consider the differences between WANTS and NEEDS, while setting inspirational examples. As children return to school in the fall of 2022, this sequel hopes to inspire them with fun/creative/rhyming stories of perspective, understanding, care, respect, appreciation of diversity, and friendship.
See you then!
