6PM WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12
Mo Willems: Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs
Mo Willems
Three-time Caldecott Honor-winning picturebook author and illustrator Mo Willems presents Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs.

Once upon a time, there were three hungry Dinosaurs: Papa Dinosaur, Mama Dinosaur... and a Dinosaur who happened to be visiting from Norway. One day—"for no particular reason"—they decided to tidy up their house, make the beds, and prepare pudding of varying temperatures. And then—"for no particular reason"—they decided to go... someplace else. They were definitely not setting a trap for some succulent, unsupervised little girl. Definitely not.

The Boston Globe raves, "Mo Willems is to our era what Margaret Wise Brown was a half century ago... he has his finger on the pulse of what interests children most. His books are simple, not simplistic; they are clever, witty, various, and surprising."
