Kate Klise will sign at The Bookworm
Kate Klise, author of many picture books and intermediate novels, will be in Omaha to speak in area schools, and will sign at The Bookworm at 6 p.m. Her latest book in the 43 Old Cemetery Road series is Till Death Do Us Bark (Harcourt, $15.99). When a dog arrives at Spence Mansion, Seymour is overjoyed. His adoptive parents are less enthusiastic--especially when Secret, the dog, barks all night long. Is it possible Secret just misses his old companion, the late Noah Breth, whose children are fighting over their father's money? Kate’s latest picture book, illustrated by her sister Sarah, is Stand Straight, Ella Kate: The True Story of a Real Giant (Dial, $16.99). Ella Kate Ewing was born in 1872. She started out small, but she just kept on growing. Soon she was too tall for her desk at school, too tall for her bed at home, too tall to fit anywhere. Ella Kate was a real-life giant, but she refused to hide herself away. Instead, she used her unusual height to achieve her equally large dreams. The masterful Klise sisters deliver a touching and inspiring true story about a strong-minded girl who finally embraced her differences. It's the perfect book for every child who has ever felt like an outsider.
