Posed photo with your camera taken by our staff.
All books will be pre-signed. The authors will not sign anything during the photo line.
All events have open seating. The “Order Line Number” on your pdf ticket is your reserved place in the photo line. You will line up to meet the authors based on that number.
If you cannot attend, you must pick up your book (if included with ticket) at the hosting store within 30 days of the event. We can ship that book to you for an additional charge of $9.99; please call the store to arrange that.
Pre-registration is required for this event because space is limited.

The BSC has a million adventures, of course. And they still have time for what they like best of all -- baby-sitting!
