SUMMARY:Sandra Salsbury on Crowdcast
DESCRIPTION:virtually launching Best Friend in the Whole World\, a charming picture book about compassion and friendship in which a lonely rabbit\, a quiet pinecone\, and their perfect bond are tested. \n“Who is the ‘Best Friend in the Whole World’? After reading this sweet\, sensitive tale\, children can decide for themselves.”—New York Times \nShe’ll read her book and show us how to draw a best pine cone friend. Be sure to have your drawing materials ready! The book is recommended for ages 3-7.  \nThis is a free event\, though we encourage you to purchase a signed copy of the book through our website and/or to make a donation to support Mrs. Dalloway’s virtual events. Be sure to add your contribution before you “Save your Spot” on Crowdcast. Thank you! \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nSunday\, March 21\, 2021 – 1:00pm\n\n\n\n\n\nRoland lives a quiet life filled with books\, music\, and tea parties for one\, but sometimes he feels rather lonely. When Roland finds the perfect companion in Milton (Good listener! Enjoys music! Also alone!)\, he is overjoyed. It’s okay that Milton is just a pine cone; they have so much in common. But clues start popping up in the woods\, suggesting someone else might be missing their best pine cone friend. Roland must decide if it’s worth leaving someone else in their loneliness to keep Milton in his life. \nSandra Salsbury received the 2018 SCBWI Don Freeman Illustration Grant. She has a BFA and MFA in Illustration from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco and lives in Berkeley\, where she cares for numerous house plants and a software engineer.

SUMMARY:Maxima Kahn and Indigo Moor
DESCRIPTION:Poetry Flash presents a poetry reading by Maxima Kahn\, Fierce Aria\, and Indigo Moor\, Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something \, online via Zoom\, free\, 3:00 pm PDT (Register to attend: please click here; you will receive an email with a link to join the reading) \nMORE ABOUT THE READERS\nPlease join us for a Poetry Flash virtual reading on Sunday\, March 21 at 3:00 pm PDT! We are excited to bring you Maxima Kahn and Indigo Moor via Zoom. To register for this reading\, please click on the link in the calendar listing above. After you register\, you will receive an email invitation with a link to join the reading. Thank you for continuing to support Poetry Flash and our reading series during these unprecedented times. \nThis reading is co-sponsored by Moe’s Books in Berkeley; the featured books are available at bookshop.org/lists/poetry-flash-readings. \nMaxima Kahn’s first full-length collection of poems is Fierce Aria. Annie Finch says\, “I have learned to walk into the valley of my fears and losses\,” writes Maxima Kahn\, and the evidence of what she has learned is all over these amazing poems. Fierce Aria is a book with a post-Wallace Stevens mission: to coax the still perfection of ideas out of the abstract realm\, so they can take shape in the messy wilderness of reality. Distinctive\, honed\, vulnerable\, musical\, courageous\, honest\, Maxima Kahn’s poems are fully ripened\, fully considered—each one ready to drop richly into the hand like a subtly contoured fruit.” Kahn also writes poetry\, essays and fiction. Her work has been featured in numerous literary journals\, and on blogs such as The Creative Penn\, Tiny Buddha\, Positively Positive and The Startup; her own blog is Creative Sparks at BrilliantPlayground.com. She is also an improvisational violinist\, a composer\, and a dancer. She lives in the Sierra Nevada in California. \nIndigo Moor’s new book is Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something\, recipient of The Backwaters Prize in Poetry\, Honorable Mention\, University of Nebraska Press. Cornelius Eady says\, “I strongly suggest you carry Moor’s brilliant book\, Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something\, home.…In this dazzling book\, you will read just how closely this poet has been paying attention\, to us\, to his histories\, foreign and domestic\, to our mighty (and sometimes mighty confusing) nation. Jonesin’ is a verse flashlight to all the corners you thought no one was supposed to pay attention to\, line by beautifully crafted line\, truth by earned truth. You’ll reach the last line of the last poem\, and trust me\, that’s when the hunger for more will begin.” Also a scriptwriter\, Moor is Poet Laureate emeritus of Sacramento. His other works include Tap-Root\, Through the Stonecutter’s Window (winner of the Northwestern University’s Cave Canem Prize)\, and In the Room of Thirsts and Hungers: The Mirrored Tragedies of Paul Robeson and Othello.
