Visit from bestselling children’s author Adam Rex Nov. 19

The Stillwater Public Library will host award-winning and New York Times bestselling author and illustrator Adam Rex on Tuesday, Nov. 19, at 4 p.m. in the Stillwater Public Library Auditorium.

Rex will discuss how he went from a scribbly baby to someone who gets paid to make things up. He will also lead attendees step-by-step through making a picture book, from the initial idea through awful first tries, better subsequent tries, and finally, the finished book. This event is best suited for elementary and middle school students and their families. Funding is provided by Friends of the Stillwater Public Library and donors to Stillwater Public Education Foundation and their Adopt-An-Author program.
