"Going Places" at The Blue Bunny this Saturday

Twins Peter and Paul Reynolds have collaborated on a lifetime of projects and endeavors together, but this Saturday, March 15th, they celebrate their first collaboration on a children's picture book. Going Places, published by Atheneum's Books for Young Readers, officially releases to the public on Tuesday the 18th, but the publisher okayed the party this weekend to get the buzz rolling on this highly-anticipated book. 

Already receiving great reviews from some of the benchmark industry publications, Going Places celebrates creativity and collaboration.  It both literally and figuratively encourages children to "think outside the box" -- using imagination, resilience and grit to reach the finish line. With appeal for both the educational and consumer markets, Going Places will make a great gift for any child (or adult) in your life who might need encouragement to stretch their imagination & creative problem-solving skills to navigate the journey ahead.
