Kate Klise, author of Regarding the Fountain and many, many other wonderful books, is coming to Rhode Island! She will be at the State House in Providence on Saturday, June 12th for the kickoff to the first ever Youth Reading Across Rhode Island (RARI)! Regarding the Fountain is the first Youth RARI book and libraries across the state will be hosting special events all year.On Saturday the 12th those who attend will hear Kate Klise speak at 1pm and will receive a free copy of Regarding the Fountain. The event will also include a book sale and signing, balloon creations by Mr. Twister, a performance by Joe's Backyard Band and popcorn, ice cream and sandwich vendors.
The Newport Public Library will have a table at the state house so be sure and stop by and say hello! For more information about Youth RARI and the event at the state house check out the Youth RARI blog.
Those of you in book club will remember that we conducted a telephone interview with Kate Klise back in October when we read her fabulous book Dying to Meet You. She was absolutely wonderful and I think she is the perfect choice for our first ever Youth RARI.
Join us at the State House on June 12th for an amazing event!
