Children’s Authors Tea Brings Families Together

Enjoying a Cup’a at the Authors Tea!

A child sips a cup of tea at the always popular Children’s Authors Tea promoting children’s literacy held on April 18 at the Belknap Mill in Laconia.

Presented by the LRCS Family Resource Center of Central NH, the family event featured 5 local children’s book authors and illustrators presenting their books and stories and a wonderful spread of tea and treats generously donated by Curt’s Catering of Gilford. Around 40 families – 100 adults and children-  attended this year.

“To see so many families immersed in literature and enjoying quality time together is truly heartwarming, commented Tricia Tousignant, FRC-CNH Parent Education Manager.”
