All about book launches
What exactly goes on at a book launch and why would you take your kids to one? Megan and Allison take you inside the secrets of book launches and look at how to find them and who should attend (spoiler: everyone). Plus, Allison has a very quick but important tip for kids who’d love to write better, and Megan shares three new books she loves (one of which makes Allison sigh with relief).
