Join us for a morning with local children's author and illustrator, Cynthia Cliff, who will share her latest book, A Weekend Trip. A seek-and-find adventure for children of all ages, this book invites children and families to discuss the wordless pages as they meet and follow characters through their weekend at the beach. Free copies of the author's book will be available to families while supplies last, courtesy of the DC Public Library Foundation. Registration is requested for this event.
"A diverse cast of charming characters take a trip to a beachside resort and offer hours of entertainment for young readers everywhere.
There are endless ways to enjoy a vacation on this island where folks of all ages, races, cultures, and abilities gather for a weekend of fun. Young readers will spend hours poring over the delightfully detailed and brightly colored spreads that follow families as they pack their bags; travel by car, train, bike and bus; arrive at hotels, campsites, and cottages; and take part in all kinds of activities—swimming, picnicking, fishing, boating, reading and more. A sudden rain shower drives everyone into the village and in the evening, they go out for dinner or barbecue. There’s a lot to unpack and explore in Cynthia Cliff’s lively paintings that show that fun means something different for every family."
