A Billion Balloons of Questions: Book Launch with Amy Moreno

About A Billion Balloons of Questions: Book Launch with Amy Moreno

From the moment six-year-old Eva wakes up, her day is full of questions. Her Peruvian Papá says she has billions of questions, but really Eva has balloons full of questions that she carries around until she can find the answers.

She has big questions like "What can I do about all the plastic in the ocean?" and small questions like "Dónde está Peru?" She has bright questions: "¿Los unicornios existen?" and warm questions: "Could I invent a hug that would last all day long?" She has funny questions like "Do bats get dizzy hanging upside down?" and confusing questions: "Why are oranges orange?!"

Sometimes Eva's bunch of balloons grows so big that it feels overwhelming, but she's learning that it can take time to find out all the answers, and that's OK.

Join author Amy B. Moreno for an in-person reading and Q&A in celebration of her funny, heart-warming debut picture book!

Wednesday 12th October 2022
