Valentines are the Worst!: Saturday Storytime with Alex Willan
Join us at The Book Stall (811 Elm Street in Winnetka) on Saturday, January 31 at 10:30 am for a special Saturday Storytime featuring our good pal, Alex Willan and his new picture book, Valentines are the Worst! An unsuspecting Gilbert the Goblin finds himself in the crosshairs of cupids and their heart-tipped arrows in the hilarious latest installment in The Worst! picture book series, where even the strangest of creatures can become the best of friends.
If it was Alex Willan, and not Gilbert the Goblin, who was in charge of writing the stories, he’d make a book called Anchovies are the Worst!. Alex is the author-illustrator of the Worst! picture book series and the Jasper & Ollie series, as well as the illustrator of Got Your Nose, written by Alan Katz. Alex lives in Chicago with his dog, Harley, who is the absolute best. Visit him online at AlexWillan.com.
