READINGS - FIRST

FIRST:  
"HAVE YOU SEEN MY GLASSES?"
GET SET DAY CARE, BROOKLYN, NY
MARCH 22, 2013   &   MARCH 28, 2013



The first reading on March 22, 2013 was done in Ms. St. Hill's class.  And the children had a great time.  They loved the reading and interacted wonderfully with Ms. Maricheau and the story as well.  They were excited about all the characters in Have You Seen My Glasses? Ms. Maricheau's first published children's book and had lots of fun hearing Ms. Maricheau story telling talents.  They were excited about the story of Lucy Duck, all her farm animal friends and Lucy's baby girl duckling Rainbow.  At the end of the reading, the children gathered around Ms. Maricheau, hugging her warmly.

For the second reading on March 28, 2013 in Ms. Lane's class the children interacted with the characters of the story, in particular, Maxx D Raccoon, who wanted to be a rapper.  Diva Pinky Pig was another favorite, for when the children heard about her taking pictures while laying on Lucy's egg, and posting them on Pinky Space they just burst out into a peel of glee.  One little girl in particular, however was very firm in her belief that Lucy was the only one that should lay on her egg and would not budge from that position.

Even some of the workers were enthralled by the story....one parent, there to pick up her son was also very excited listening to the reading and posted a flyer of Have You Seen My Glasses? on her facebook page, encouraging others to support the author. 

At both readings Ms. Maricheau got down on the floor, the same level as the children and read to them...It was clear that not only the children were excited, but Ms. Maricheau was as well....it could even be claimed that she was more excited than the children....if that is possible.
