Join us Sunday August 20th at 3 p.m. as we welcome Julie Hampton to the store to read and sign Betty Builds It. Explores a burgeoning friendship between a genius engineering robot girl and her sweet younger brother who just wants to support his sister. Julie Hampton is a Southern California author/illustrator/architect. Her picture book, Betty Builds It, uses art and humor to tell the story about a robot girl who loves to build things. It supports girls in STEM and explores themes of friendship and siblinghood. Julie loves developing offbeat stories with quirky characters that hit that sweet spot of funny and poignant. Like Betty, she loves to make and build things in her fabulous art studio and workshop and is friends with her little brother and her toaster. She adores the intersection of the odd and the familiar and believes the need for this kind of wackiness is universal. For more information visit: dieselbookstore.com Stay Connected on Facebook
