“The Dog & The Dolphin” is the topic of a special story time and book-signing event at IU Health LaPorte Hospital’s main lobby on Oct. 20 from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m.
Children of all ages are invited to hear author James Dworkin (PNC chancellor) read his new book and meet illustrator Michael Chelich at this fun-filled event. Red, a friendly Irish setter and the book’s main character, will also be on hand for children to meet and pet!
“The Dog & The Dolphin” is a gentle story inspired by a real experience, showing how friendships can crop up in the most unexpected ways.
All proceeds from book sales will benefit childhood education scholarships at the university.
Free gift bags will be available to the first 75 children at the event. A limited number of signed books (75) will be available for purchase at a discounted price of $8 each, and the author and illustrator will personalize each book. (The book is also available through amazon.com for $8.99).
Special thanks to Rusty Acres Kennel in LaPorte County for Red’s appearance.
