Angelina Ballerina
Monday, April 30, 2007
I have been a fan of Katharine Holabird, the author of the Angelina Ballerina, since I received her first book as a gift when I was 5. Ever since then I have been hooked on the little dancing mouse. My mom still buys me every new book that comes out and we enjoy reading them together. This weekend I had the opportunity to meet Ms. Katharine in person at the Festival of Books. James and I got there 1.5 hours early just to make sure they wouldn't change the schedule on us at the last second. I had her sign 6 of my first edition books while James was my press photographer. It was a day I will never forget.
