We virtually hosted author Victoria Kann on October 7! Victoria is the author and illustrator of the wildly popular Pinkalicious books. Victoria joined us from her home studio on Microsoft Teams, which allowed students from all over our district to participate in the event.
Victoria's presentation focused on her new book Rubylicious. In this book, Pinkalicious is searching for stones for her rock collection when a surprise pops out suddenly! Rocky is here to grant Pinkalicious and her brother Peter one wish, and one wish only, so they must choose wisely. This book has a wonderful message about how being selfless can be its own best reward. The bright, colorful illustrations add to the engaging story.
Victoria's presentation was perfect for our kindergarten through second grade students. She started by talking about her books and asked students to wiggle their ears, shake their hands, etc. if they had read the books. Then she read Rubylicious and finally students asked questions. Best of all, Victoria's visit was sponsored by FoxTale Book Shoppe. We are so fortunate to have a local book store that connects our students to authors. I know they will remember "meeting" Victoria for many years to come!
