AUTHORS OF “I LOVE YOU, STINKY FACE” AND “TINA COCOLINA: QUEEN OF THE CUPCAKES” TO BE FEATURED AT DADELAND MALL’S “BOOK BLAST”

Dadeland Mall invites children of all ages to celebrate the joys of reading at Simon Kidgits Club’s “Book Blast” event.  Engaging reading activities and giveaways will bring to life children’s stories and help celebrate books and the joy of reading.  Featured storytellers are authors Lisa McCourt, “I Love You, Stinky Face,” and Pablo Cartaya, “Tina Cocolina: Queen of the Cupcakes.”

In partnership with the Florida Department of Education, Dadeland Mall will be accepting donations of new and gently-used books during a three week period around this event.  The books will support the “Just Read, Florida!” initiative and will be distributed to local area programs and schools.  Kidgits events are sponsored by Florida Blue.
