Barnes & Noble Corte Madera Hosts Marc Brown’s Arthur for Costume Character Storytime



Barnes & Noble Corte Madera today announced that Marc Brown’s Arthur will be the special Storytime guest at the Barnes & Noble store in Corte Madera, California on Saturday, January 17, 2015 at 2p.m.



Children of all ages are invited to experience the joy of reading and storytelling through Arthur’s Valentine and other Arthur Adventures by Marc Brown. Arthur, the little aardvark with a big agenda, “is in the business of trying to make children successful. We are always on the lookout for issues that are important to children and families and presenting them …in ways that are helpful, instructive and entertaining. Arthur is also something of an overachiever. He's sold over 65 million books in the United States alone. His books, apps, e-books, and television are enjoyed by children in more than 80 countries around the world. The books and television series have won numerous awards including the New York Times Bestseller list, several Emmys and The George Foster Peabody Award for Excellence in Broadcasting (way to go, Arthur!).” - from marcbrownstudios.com Customers are encouraged to take photographs of their child at the Storytime and share them on their social media venues using the hashtag #BNStorytime.



“Kids always have so much fun meeting one of their favorite characters from the world of books, television or movies,” said Sarah DiFrancesco, Director of Business Development for Barnes & Noble. “Meeting the character brings the story to life and gives parents a chance to take a photo of their child with the character that they’ll cherish for a lifetime.”
