Always nice for a book to show up somewhere. You just never know where they’ll end up. Though always best seen in a young reader’s hands.

And then there’s this shot, from the great Warwick Children’s Book Festival . . .

Yes, please. Ask me about school visits!

I’m happy to discuss the details to see if we have a fit. 

As I’ve said before, I am fairly unique in that I have current, age-appropriate, affordable paperback books for grades PreK-8. 

Will travel! You can write to me at [email protected].

Thanks so much.

Warwick Children’s Book Festival, 10/12

October 9, 2025 / / No comments

In a world that has gone completely off the rails, there remain some simple values we can still enjoy and support.

Books, reading, children. 

And, yes, sure, the good folks who create the books and try to eke out a living doing so.  There are times we feel like an endangered species.

Please stop by my table and say hello!

This SUNDAY, the 13th, I’ll be at the Warwick Children’s Book Festival along with a great number of talented authors and illustrators. Warwick is such a sweet little town, with great shops and restaurants, especially beautiful this time of year. Worth a road trip. And the festival is great fun, too. If you do come, please stop by and say hello! For full details, stomp on this. 

I’ll be signing any number of books, old favorites and new, including these titles just published in 2024 . . .

I’ll be driving around, working on weekends, and showing up at various upcoming book festivals. If you can make it, yes, please, by all means stop by my table and say hello.

I’ll be signing books and eager to talk about school visits. Or if you wish, just write to me at: [email protected] and we can begin the conversation that way.

CHAPPAQUA CHILDREN’S BOOK FESTIVAL

This one is bananas. Something like 180 authors & illustrators, possibly the biggest children’s book festival in the States? Who is going to be there? Everybody.

MAPLEWOOD SOUTH ORANGE BOOK FESTIVAL

This is a new one for me, which is exciting and slightly anxiety provoking. I’m hoping for smaller, quieter, cozier. I’m hoping to see area teachers and librarians and maybe we can begin talking about school visits.

Come See Me at Book Festivals Across New York: Warwick, Chappaqua, Rochester, Hudson

October 3, 2022 / / No comments

 

Let’s imagine, for a wild moment, that you are desperate to see James Preller sitting at a table filled with many of his/my books, Sharpie poised in his/my hand, glazed look in his/my eyes. 

Well, this is your lucky day!

Here’s a list of 4 different book festivals in New York State that I’ll be attending in the near and semi-near and quasi-distant future.

No other state will have him/me. 

And by “near” I mean: this Saturday. And the Saturday after that. 

And by “quasi-distant” I mean: Next Year!

And — joking aside — I am grateful to be invited to participate in these celebrations of books, of literacy, of reading. Meeting teachers and parents and young readers. There will be a day soon enough when I am no longer invited anywhere. Which is why I say yes to everything!

Thankfully, happily, eagerly.

Click on the links for details if you are a detail person. 

 

CHILDREN’S BOOK FESTIVAL APPEARANCES . . . 

WARWICK: October 8th!

Thank you and, yes, please, ask me about school visits!
