Join me for the exciting book launch of The Waterubas: Book 1 when I will speak with Jocelyn Stevenson about her captivating new children's book that blends adventure with a vital message about the importance of water.

Best known for her work on beloved children’s television like Fraggle Rock and Sesame Street, Jocelyn now brings her storytelling magic to this imaginative tale that encourages kids to see the wonder and mystery in the world around them.

During this event she will speak about what inspired the story of 11 year old Miriam Peterson who goes on incredible journeys that no human child should be able to make. Along the way she becomes friends with a boy whose life could not be more different than her own. And, most incredible of all, she discovers eighty-one astonishing beings who might just hold the future of the world in their ancient and watery grasp. The Waterubas.

Jocelyn will explain why she felt compelled to introduce children to the critical ways that water supports all life on this planet. And as someone who has helped create some of the most popular children’s television, she will also share how children’s literature can positively impact the future.

Sincerely,

Book 1

by Jocelyn Stevenson

When 11 year old Miriam Peterson turns on the faucet at Grammy's house and nothing comes out, it feels like the final straw. She's late for the Science Camp she doesn't even want to go to; her father and brothers are far away on another continent; and most of all, she misses her mom so badly it hurts - the mom that no one else believes will ever come back. But when something does finally drip out of that faucet, it will change Miriam's life forever.  She will go on incredible journeys that no human child should be able to make. She will become friends with a boy whose life could not be more different to hers. And, most incredible of all, she will discover eighty-one astonishing beings who might just hold the future of the world in their ancient and watery grasp. The Waterubas.
