Meet Creators of Babymouse + Squish w/ Free Book Signing (Foster City)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

San Mateo County Libraries welcomes sibling duo Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm, who brought you classics like New York Times bestselling series Babymouse and Squish, to a celebration of the latest installment in the beloved Sunny series: Sunny Figures It Out! 

Skilled at crafting stories that are deeply relatable and humorous with fantastic kid appeal, the duo will share both author and illustrator perspectives and engage young readers with their humor and creativity. This in-person event at the Foster City Library will be followed by a signing line. Giveaway copies will be available at the event, while supplies last.

About the book:

There’s no question that Sunny has fun whenever she hangs out with Tony. They go to the movies together, talk a lot at school, and support each other when they need it. But are they dating? Sunny isn’t sure… but her friend, Deb, is. She thinks Sunny and Tony should be doing the couples-skate at the local roller rink. And Tony should be giving Sunny his jacket to wear. And carrying her books to class. For Sunny, this doesn’t feel great. It just feels… weird. Maybe she needs to stop taking everyone else’s advice in order to figure things out for herself!
