SUMMARY:Children's Literature Conference
DESCRIPTION:A 40-Year Love Story: Celebrating Books\, Students\, Educators and the Magic In-Between. What happens when you bring the best minds in children’s literature into one room with the educators who bring those stories to life? For 40 years\, the answer has been simple: it’s magic. \nSince our inception\, the Shenandoah University Children’s Literature Conference has served as a bridge between the creators of our most notable books and the librarians and teachers who put them into the hands of children. We’ve hosted hundreds of the brightest authors and illustrators in the field\, and thousands of educators have left our campus with renewed purpose. \nAs we mark our 40th anniversary\, we invite you to be part of the story. Whether you are looking for new classroom strategies or simply want to be rejuvenated by the work you love\, this conference is for you. To our many past attendees: Consider this your official invitation to come home and celebrate 40 years of community with us. Come share in the power of great books and the company of peers and authors who understand the importance of what you do every day.

SUMMARY:Author Event: Dress Your Baby in Sage and Taupe
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an afternoon with Hayley DeRoche\, who will share her new book\, Dress Your Baby in Sage and Taupe: A Handbook for the Sad Beige Parent. An audience Q&A will follow. This in-person event will be free and open to the public. We recommend arriving early for the best seating. \nAbout the Book: From Hayley DeRoche\, the humorist who first coined the term “Sad Beige Mom\,” comes a tongue-in-cheek illustrated guide to the neutral aesthetic sweeping nurseries everywhere. \nWelcome to the wonderful world of beige parenting\, where newborns are swaddled in soothingly sophisticated taupe muslin blankies and toddlers play only with wooden toys in shades ranging from oatmeal to sand. In Dress Your Baby in Sage and Taupe\, Hayley DeRoche\, the creator known online as @sadbeige\, delivers a witty\, illustrated satire of the perfectly monochromatic curated lifestyle embraced by modern parents. In a collection ranging from essays and quizzes to advice columns and poems\, she takes aim at buzzy parenting trends such as feeding children artisanal baby superfoods or choosing obscure names for their kids like Tawny and Sorrel. This guide walks new parents through every step of the sad beige parenting journey\, from decorating the nursery (take care to choose a suitably existential theme such as the Vastness of the Universe)\, all the way to the milestone that is the first birthday party (be sure to eschew plastic party favors in favor of hand-whittled wooden toys.) Along the way\, she gently encourages new parents to realize that they are already the ideal caregiver for their unique little person\, with or without the latest limited edition baby carrier or must-have sleep course. With custom illustrations by Julia Emiliani\, this heartfelt blend of humor and social commentary is a breath of fresh air for both overwhelmed parents and those striving for Instagram perfection. \nAbout the Author: Hayley DeRoche is a humorist and poet\, and the creator of the viral “Sad Biege” TikTok series. Her work has been covered by the BBC\, The Washington Post\, The New York Times\, and more. She lives with her family near Richmond\, Virginia\, where she is also a public librarian. \nDress Your Baby In Sage and Taupe will be released on April 21. To order the book\, please see below for the New Dominion Bookshop book order form or call the shop at 434-295-2552.
