Avid presents childrens' author Abby Hanlon for her newest book, DORY FANTASMAGORY, HEAD IN THE CLOUDS. This event will be hosted on March 6 from 6pm to 7pm, and will be free and open to the public. We encourage you to buy a copy of this title at the event and get it signed by the author!
Dory has her first loose tooth, and, with her usual over-the-top excitement, she cannot stop talking about the tooth fairy. Naturally, this drives her brother and sister crazy. But it also sparks a serious jealous streak in her nemesis, Mrs. Gobble Cracker, who wants all of Dory's attention to herself.
But Mrs. Gobble Gracker has decided to steal the tooth fairy's job, and flying around in a tutu from Rosabelle, she heads for Dory's house. It's time for Dory to come up with a serious plan to get the tooth fairy her job back.
The fourth installment in the wildly popular DORY FANTASMAGORY series delivers laughs on every page as Dory teams up with her pals, real and imaginary, to save the tooth fairy for all the world's children--and get her dollar!
