About the Event Books-A-Million (BAM) will have plenty of books to purchase to accommodate everyone at the event. If you purchase your book(s) ahead of time, please keep your receipt.
Please arrive early: the first 100 families in line will receive a free signed Jan Brett poster. Your place in the signing line will also depend on when you arrive at the event. Doors to the event will open at 4:30pm.
Jan will do her very best to sign all the books that time permits. The number she can sign per family depends on how many people come to the signing. If time does not permit her to sign every book, special signed bookplates featuring her artwork will be on hand for the extra books.
Before the signing, Jan Brett will do a 20-30 minute drawing demonstration and presentation. This will start at 5pm. Everyone is invited to come to the presentation and receive as many signed bookplates as they request.
Jan's Tour Bus Jan’s tour bus will be parked in the WDT parking lot, near the entrance to the Events Center, starting around 4:15pm. It is wrapped in artwork from her books. Your family is welcome to take a photograph next to the bus.
Meet Hedgie Hedgie, Jan’s favorite friend from "The Mitten" and "The Hat," will be present at the event as well. Please bring the kids to have a photo taken with Hedgie. |
