Description

Chasten Buttigieg comes to AADL to discuss his new picture book for children, Papa's Coming Home.

Jojo and Rosie's papa has been away on a trip, and they can't wait to welcome him home! They make signs, they pick flowers, and with Daddy's help, they bake a cake and pack the car with absolutely everything Papa might have missed while he was away. When Papa's plane arrives, they give him a huge hug—but when they bring him to the car, they realize there's one small problem: Where will Papa sit?

Illustrated by Dan Taylor, this story filled with love celebrates dads and familial bonds. Chasten Buttigieg shines a light on the humorous musings of toddlers and a parent’s unconditional love for their child.

This event is in partnership with Literati Bookstore and includes a signing with books for sale.
