Schedule of Upcoming Events

AUTHOR EVENTS TO CELEBRATE

The Secret Shofar of Barcelona

Rebecca Rubin Series- American Girl

I’ll be traveling around the country to talk about how I wrote my newest picture book, The Secret Shofar of Barcelona, and the American Girl series about Rebecca. All events will include an author talk, a Q and A session, and a book signing. Program times are always subject to change so be sure to check details with each sponsoring group.

Some events require tickets or pre-registration. Many include a drawing for a Rebecca doll and book. More dates will be added in the coming months. I hope to meet you at one of these events!
