Invitation to writers of children's books

We are in the planning stages of organizing a reading series for pre-schoolers to be held monthly at a children's hairstyling salon in Pointe Claire. Authors of children's books and performers are invited to read from their works and display their books for sale at the store. The aim of this project is to add an interesting and educational activity for the young clients and raise funds for a charitable children's cause.
