This storytelling celebration should manage to entice even the most reading-averse kiddos. In partnership with Seattle Urban Book Expo, which bolsters the BIPOC self-publishing community with writing and promotional services, Town Hall Seattle will spotlight the importance of representation in children's literature with the second edition of Children's Book Day. There'll be a face painter on site, plus double Dutch, BIPOC author meet-and-greets, and an appearance by the Seahawks’ giant avian mascot, Blitz. Visitors can also walk away with handmade bookmarks, books, and school supplies. by Lindsay Costello
