Storytime and Book Signing with Author Tess Thomas
Please join us for a special storytime and signing with Tess Thomas, author of SHIBU’S TAIL.
Shibu the cat has a lot of feelings and thankfully his fluffy tail helps him express them all! But one day, Shibu realizes that all the other cats are keeping their feelings (and their tails) tucked away. Maybe it would be better to try and fit in? From two extraordinary debuts comes a delightful story on navigating life’s highs, lows, and all the big emotions in between.
Selected by Amazon as an editor’s pick and September 2025 Best Book of the Month (ages 3-5) and with starred reviews in Kirkus and Publishers Weekly, SHIBU’S TAIL is the perfect title to get your students laughing and ready for social emotional learning (SEL).
