Event Description

Meet the local father/son duo who co-authored Frankenwalnut for a read aloud, Q&A session, and book signing, then visit STEM stations to build your own Frankentoy and experiment with electricity. 

They say that lightning never strikes twice. But on this strange and spooky night, lightning struck not once…not twice…but THRICE! Join Frankenwalnut and a cast of nutty characters on a journey through Walnuttia as they learn about the power of bravery and being a good friend. Written by Ann Arbor father/son duo, Frankenwalnut began as a bedtime story and now is making a real-world impact through its inclusive messaging. 

20% of all book proceeds will be donated to anti-bullying campaigns such as the Trevor Project, Stand for the Silent, and Stomp Out Bullying. Copies will be available for purchase for the book signing.
