57th Street Books hosts author Michelle Schaub, who will be reading her books, Finding Treasure and Fresh-Picked Poetry. Kids can learn how to find treasure in unexpected places and poetry at the farmer’s market!

From the host: 

"About Finding Treasure: My teacher gave us homework that has me quite perplexed. He asked us all to bring to class something we collect. A fun assignment, but what if you don’t collect anything? Family members, friends, and neighbors all have collections of their own. Is there time to start a collection? Or find an abandoned one in the attic? Sometimes the treasure you’re seeking is right in front of you. Join the hunt for a collection in this story told through poems! 

About Fresh-Picked Poetry: Spend a day at the farmers' market with food, fun, and a fresh harvest.  Through eighteen lively poems, follow the adventures of two new friends and their canine companions as they discover how much there is to love at the market.
