What is Monroe Children’s Book Day?
Monroe Children’s Book Day is a day when our town celebrates the whimsy, wonder, and imagination of children’s literature! Think Unicorn Day, but for all kinds of children’s books. Find bookish details all around town, see how different businesses celebrate different books, pop in for lots of activities and photos around town, and come dressed up as your favorite book character to add to the magic!
Join us for one of our very special Story Time Events!
See you Saturday, May 7th at either 10:00am, 12:00pm, or 3:00pm for a special Meet the Author & Illustrator Story Time! Jonathan & Heather will read several of their hilariously delightful books, we’ll join Llama in some of his shenanigans, have a time for Q&A, a book signing, and top it all off with a yummy llama treat. Recommended for ages 3-9, but all are welcome!
Please Note!!
While this is not a ticketed event, the only way to guarantee entry to one of the story times is to pre-order a Llama book. Our pre-orders will enter the Wardrobe first, and then we will allow as many others in as there is room. Only one pre-order is necessary per family.
Pre-orders are also entered to win a fabulous bookish basket!

About Heather: She likes to explore the use of color and shapes to create bright and whimsical doodles! When she isn't creating, you can probably find her enjoying a cup of coffee, walking around town, or chasing down her dog (Sir Hugo) who has stolen one of her socks. She lives in Lititz, Pennsylvania with her husband (and author!) Jonathan Stutzman.
