SUMMARY:Criminals, Bullies, and Aliens - David Klass
DESCRIPTION:Screenwriter and novelist David Klass knows a lot of strange characters\, including career criminals\, seriously twisted stepfathers\, and snail-like aliens. His screenplays for Hollywood (Desperate Measures) and television (Law and Order) are mostly character-based thrillers\, and his novels often portray teenagers in crisis. Take Tom Filbur in Stuck on Earth—a fourteen-year-old outcast with a dismal family life\, he is also the unwilling host of Ketchvar III\, an alien who has crawled up Tom’s nostril and into his brain. In this event for teens and adults\, Klass introduces Tom and Ketchvar\, and talks about his wide-ranging writing career.

SUMMARY:Picture This  - Kevin Hawkes and Kate Messner
DESCRIPTION:Kevin Hawkes and author Kate Messner take the stage to share their newest books for young readers. In A Pig Parade Is a Terrible Idea\, Hawkes’ distinctive acrylic paintings alternate between cartoonlike and realistic as an omniscient narrator explains why a pig parade is not a great idea after all. Messner’s first illustrated chapter book\, Marty McGuire\, features a delightfully spunky girl who would rather catch frogs than play dress-up\, while her picture books tell the stories of familiar New England animals and an unusual sea creature.
