Red Balloon Bookshop is SO excited to welcome Neil Sharpson and Dan Santat for a storytime in honor of their picture book DON'T TRUST FISH!
About this Event

This nature-guide-gone-wrong is a hilarious, off-the-rails exploration of the seemingly innocent animals that live in the water. Join Neil and Dan for a raucous read-aloud of the book and drawing demonstration followed by a book signing at Red Balloon!

To attend: This event is open to the public, but registration helps us when considering spatial constraints. You can register for a ticket for free through February 28, 9:00am, and order a copy of the book . Additional copies of Don't Trust Fish will be available for purchase during the event, but ordering ahead guarantees your copy.

Signing Guidelines: Following the event, Neil and Dan will sign and personalize copies of the book. If you would prefer not to stay for the signing portion, Red Balloon can have your books signed and personalized for you and will contact you when they're ready to be picked up.

Accessibility: Red Balloon Bookshop is wheelchair accessible and has a disability parking spot directly behind our store. If you have a disability or medical condition and have questions about or need other specific accommodations, please email [email protected] or call 651-224-8320.

Code of Conduct: Red Balloon strives to create a kind, safe, and welcoming space where everyone is treated fairly and thoughtfully, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, or ability.

We ask that everyone—booksellers and customers alike—follow these standards whether in our shared physical space or online.
