Read in the Park, with Dr. Ed Sarkis Balian and Amy Young

Head to Beverly Park for the fourth annual Read in the Park event! Meet the authors, walk the Storybook Trail, and enjoy beautiful Beverly Park. At 1:00 p.m. join Detroit native Dr. Ed Sarkis Balian for a fascinating multimedia program about the one and only Motor City legend Bob Seger. Ed is the author of Turn the Page: The Bob Seger Story, the only Seger biography written to date. At 3:00 p.m. visit with Amy Young, author and illustrator of the A Unicorn Named Sparkle series and many other books. She'll give kids a mini art lesson and you can learn how she illustrates.  Afterwards, walk the Story Book Trail and read all about Sparkle. Both authors will take questions from the audience and sign books after they speak. Local bookseller The Book Beat of Oak Park will be on site selling Amy Young's books for signing and Dr. Ed Sarkis Balian will have books for purchasing and signing as well.
