So about a month ago Angela Kmeck and I gave a talk at a branch of the Kansas City, KS Public Library about our book "This Is Kansas City". After Angela gave a lively and fun reading of the book; it was my turn to talk. My talk went pretty awkwardly at first but I think I salvaged it thanks to a roll of carpenters paper and some crayons. I told the kids that we had lost a page from "This Is Kansas City" and we needed their help making a new one. All they had to do was draw their favorite thing about KC. They jumped right in and got after it!
I'm on board with this one! Coffee. I believe this was drawn by Kristen Howdeshell, one of the illustrators of "The Night the World Turned Royal Blue" whom were also speaking that evening.
Not shocking that my son's favorite thing about Kansas City is himself haha
I'm not sure if this is home or school but its great!
Cats were very popular.
Love this!
More Royals love!
I can look at this one for a long time. A lot going on! I love it.
Who doesn't love the Zoo? Its definitely a fav thing about KC.
Family was another popular "favorite"
This one is mine. See? Family!
This is my son, Henry's. I'm going to say he likes the tech aspect of KC. Albeit tech in the form of what he has at home.
This awesomeness was drawn by Kevin Howdeshell, one of the illustrators of "The Night the World Turned Royal Blue". It was great to get to meet that team!
