Author Jan Zauzmer will read her newest picture book, "Down with Lime Books!" about a town that wanted to get rid of all lime books. A fun craft will follow the reading.
Paige and her pals picked out teal books and red books and plum books and more—so many they spilled from the shelves to the floor. . . . But not everyone thought that this rainbow was grand—some wanted lime-colored books to be banned.
When a town bigwig and her cranky crew snatch all the lime-green books from the school library, Paige and her pals must defend their right to read. With rollicking rhymes by Jan Zauzmer that are perfect for read-aloud fun and colorful illustrations by Blanca Millán, Down with Lime Books! takes young readers on an empowering adventure to banish the ban and save the books.
Jan Zauzmer is tickled lime to be the author of If You Go with Your Goat to Vote, Maxine’s Critters Get the Vaccine Jitters, and Down with Lime Books! Jan lives with her husband, Bob, in the Philadelphia area, where they raised their three children once upon a lime and are now proud grandparents. She hopes that this book shines the limelight on the freedom to read.
