Chapter 3: "He just writes about mystical creatures, he really isn't one." said the Mom.

So yesterday was quite the adventure for my kids; they got to meet someone of importance. I picked them up from school at 2:00 p.m. they knew not of where we were heading, a lot of questions were asked, a lot of questions were ignored:). It took 42.7 minutes to arrive at our destination. All the kids noticed were the two cop cars sitting in the parking lot, all the mom hoped for was that the line was not to long. After exiting the car we hurried into the bookstore, it was then they saw what we must be there for, the 4th book in the Fablehaven series. When we made our purchase (all 4 books in hardcover) we got into line, the kids asked why there was a line, and to their surprise I said that the author Brandon Mull was going to be there today to autograph books. Zachary was sooooooo excited, he and I have been reading Fablehaven for a while now and although we are only 1/2 way through the second book they quickly became favorites. Bradley was just so thrilled at meeting a real life author, he kept telling me that his belly felt funny. Kennadee just wanted to make sure that she got the book with the cutest cover for him to sign for her and little Lainee just wanted snacks. As our turn arrived, the excitement of the kids was overwhelming, he not only signed their books, posed for a picture, and answered questions, but he also signed posters and bookmarks for all (that became a treasure, because they didn't have to pay for those) Score!!!! It was a really fun afternoon for me, and I know that they will have this memory for a while to come.
