Kid Friendly Event – Celebrate Moms, Kids Books and Local Book Sellers

Thanks to @suzigurl for sending us the link to this event. It is kind of a cool story that started with a Tweet back in Decemeber – a group of people organized some events in New England to celebrate authors of kids books.  So a group of Pittsburghers are working to bring the events to town in time for Mother’s Day – Mothers Love Kids Books.  This weekend there will be a number of authors reading their books at local book stores.  A great way to spend some time with Mom and support local book stores.
