Apparently unrelated, perhaps, but the words in the title do, in fact, have something in common: they are the topics of the three new titles in the T-Tales collection by Topka.
And those are the books I’ll be reading at two separate readings/story-telling sessions in Madrid this coming Saturday, December 13th.
The first reading is at Kirikú y la Bruja at 12 noon, and the second at the Librería Oriental at 5:30pm.
I’ve read poetry in front of adult audiences often enough, at open mikes and individual readings, but I’ll admit to being a bit bemused by the idea of a cuentacuentos session. It occurs to me that I’ll be as old as the abuelos of most of the children there, and I’m afraid I don’t feel in the least grandmotherly.
Still, my editor has talked about bubble mixture, which is always fun, and balloons, too, so I gather she’s hoping for some audience participation. I just hope no one expects me to play baseball.
The story behind my picture-poem book Bubbles can be read here.
