Upcoming My Amazing Day events for young people, their friends and family, and the young at heart:

East Richmond Heights Art & Music Festival
Free Event
on Bernhard Avenue, in front of the Gyuto Monastery

Karin will be enjoying this festival in her own neighborhood in both her children’s book author and editor roles. 

She’ll be selling and signing copies of her new time-travel novel for ages 9-12, The Clock and the Boulder, and her award-winning board book for ages 0-3, My Amazing Day, plus selling greeting cards with images from My Amazing Day.

In addition, she’ll be happy to answer any questions you might have about writing and publishing children’s books, either through traditional publishing or self-publishing. Come by and chat!

We love to share how about how an idea became the book, My Amazing Day, and about its theme of gratitude. We are available for book signings with activities related to the book! Our presentation can be enjoyed by very young children through adults.  Contact us to schedule an event.
