Join us at River Legacy Nature Center on December 7th for a special story time and book signing with award-winning children’s author, Dianna Hutts Aston!

Dianna Hutts Aston is the award-winning author of many timeless, internationally acclaimed books celebrating the awe and wonder of nature. Her science series, illustrated by Sylvia Long, includes AN EGG IS QUIET; A SEED IS SLEEPY; A BUTTERFLY IS PATIENT; A ROCK IS LIVELY; A NEST IS NOISY; A BEETLE IS SHY; and the final in the best-selling series (One million + copies sold!), A SHELL IS COZY (Spring, 2023).

Written in a style reviewers call ‘lyrical science,’ Aston presents a wealth of information about animal and plant life cycles; adaptations; rocks and minerals; pollination and seed dispersal; habitats; and reproduction. Her hope is that the information in the series – published in Russian; Korean; Chinese; Japanese; German; Danish; French; Greek, and Romanian – will inspire children to be more than merely inhabitants of Earth.

They will be compelled to be stewards of the planet we call home.

This is a unique opportunity to meet the author behind beloved titles, hear her read one of her captivating stories, and get your favorite book signed which will happen at 12pm after story time.

What’s Dianna’s connection to River Legacy Foundation? We love her books! The rich science and nature context of her books make an ideal supplement to our River Legacy Nature School curriculum.
