Dianne de Las Casas té 4 esdeveniments ja passats. (show)  Dianne de Las Casas & Marita Genrty - BEWARE, BEWARE OF THE BIG BAD BEAR Join us for a book release party with children's book author Dianne de Las Casas and illustrator Marita Gentry featuring BEWARE, BEWARE OF THE BIG BAD BEAR. No one knows how to throw a more fun kids' book launch event then these two - there promises to be loads of hands-on activities, interactive storytelling, costumes, live art, biscuits (with homemade jams!) and more, followed by a booksigning. Their tasty tale is of a family on a bright, sunny morning. Maw Maw wants nothing more than to make her beautiful, delicious, buttery biscuits. But, she is out of the most essential ingredient—sody sallyraytus. Without it, no one can enjoy breakfast!
Maw Maw sends her family off on a mission that proves to be more dangerous than she thought. She warned them about the big bad bear that lives under the bridge. No one listened. Even Maw Maw falls victim to the giant animal! It appears as if there will not be any fluffy biscuits ever again, but when a smart, brave, and hungry squirrel comes to their rescue, everyone finds their taste buds satisfied. Readers will not feel left out, however—a biscuit recipe in the back of the book is sure to please!

In this flavorful rendition of the classic Gingerbread Man tale, award-winning international storyteller and folksinger Dianne de Las Casas presents a clever story in true Cajun style.
