Special Storytime: Beth Krommes

Date/Time

Location

The Eric Carle Museum (125 W Bay Rd, Amherst, MA 01002, Amherst MA)

Join Beth Krommes in a special celebration of her illustrated book Where the Deer Slip Through by Katey Howes. The story moves through the course of a beautiful summer day, from sunrise to moonrise, as a host of animals find their way through a gap in the hedge, bringing the farm to life. Beth calls this book her “love letter to Pennsylvania”, her home state and Katey’s.

A starred review in Kirkus said “The rich language and striking images encourage multiple readings, while the soothing, cumulative cadence creates a lovely bedtime experience.” After reading her book for those in attendance, Beth will describe her steps in illustrating a manuscript and will demonstrate her scratchboard technique.
