For this special event, girls are encouraged to dress like Audrey Hepburn, which can be as simple as wearing a scarf; French twists are fun, too! All registrants will be given a strand of free “faux pearls.”
Ms. Cardillo will read from her book and then lead a writing workshop for children of all ages. The book fair & drive, free and open to the public, will be held Saturday, February 12th (Valentine’s Day weekend) from 12 noon to 4 p.m. at Barnes & Noble, Waterside Shops, Naples. A percentage of all proceeds that day will benefit K is for Kids® Foundation and help to buy new books for children in need throughout the community.
Ms. Cardillo grew up in Naples and graduated from Barron Collier High School. She tells K is for Kids® how excited she is to get the chance to not only meet the children, but to help them write their own stories. K is for Kids® invites kids to put pen to paper and write a page and become young authors themselves for the third Young Authors book to be published by the Foundation. Ms. Cardillo will provide a special “prompt” that children may choose to write about.
Keep posted for more details.
