Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine
142 Free Street, Portland, Maine
Free Admission
Open to All Families
Join Raising Readers for an evening celebrating all the great books given to Maine kids at doctor’s offices, hospitals, and healthcare facilities across the state.
Families are invited to meet some of the authors and illustrators whose books have been a part of the Raising Reader program.
Join picture book creator’s David Elliott, Kevin Hawkes, Holly Meade, Scott Nash, and Melissa Sweet for read-alouds, book signings, and fun, book-related activities.
Bring your Raising Reader or other books by these authors and illustrators from home to be autographed. Each one of the guests has a story in Raising Readers: Five Stories for Maine Children, so bring it with you if you have it! Additional books by these creators will be for sale.
Families can also read together in the multicultural Raising Readers Book Nook in the museum, which is sponsored by The Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital at Maine Medical Center.
