out october 13th!

Uh oh, you’ve been set up on a blind playdate.

In this sequel to the award-winning picture book HOW TO PEE YOUR PANTS: THE RIGHT WAY, you’ll learn all the ways you can escape (like using a dashing disguise and building a roof-crushing robot). Along the way, you might discover that you and your playdate have more in common than you think.

FREE virtual AUTHOR VISIT FUN!

To celebrate HOW TO ESCAPE A PLAYDATE, I’m partnering with Brick and Mortar Books to offer free virtual author visits to readers across the United States.

Thursday, April 30th, 10:00AM PST: Everyone is invited to a free virtual mini author visit (20-30 min). I’ll read a sneak peek of HOW TO ESCAPE A PLAYDATE and invite kids to learn how to draw the main characters with me. Then I’ll challenge them to make up their own “how to escape” stories which they can submit to a contest. Click here to request the link!

Thursday, October 15th, 10:00AM PST: This is a special author visit (45-60 min) to celebrate the publication of HOW TO ESCAPE A PLAYDATE. I’ll read the book, announce kid contest winners, giveaway prizes, invite everyone to participate in a Choose Your Own Escape Adventure” activity, and finish with a Q&A. To receive an event invitation, purchase a classroom set of 30+ copies of HOW TO ESCAPE A PLAYDATE before October 13th. Participants will receive 20% off their purchase and an author signature and doodle in each book.
