Don't Play Catch With Jelly...But DO read the book!



Katelin and I had a wonderful opportunity to meet the authors of "Don't Play Catch With Jelly", George Jack and Jennifer Rackley, at a book fair held by the Bedford PTG and Barnes and Nobles in Manchester, NH.


The bookfair, held Feb 11 & 12, was a blast! The first day Katelin and I enjoyed skits performed by the Peter Woodbury School Destination Imagination Team and a musical performance by Bedford High School Vocalists, which Katelin LOVED! They were marvelous.
Katelin reads "The Cat in the Hat" as we wait for the music to begin



There was a great turnout for the reading of "Don't Play Catch With Jelly", read by Ken Williams of the Bedford PTG and then joined by George and Jennifer. The kids loved the silly story and helped by calling out what they thought the next word would be. A fun and interactive way to get them involved and giggling.

Following the reading, parents and kids stood in line to get their autographed copy!

It was a fun filled day for all and with a percentage of book sales going to the Bedford PTG a great day for books AND education!
