Meet Children's Picture Book Author Ken Schwarz

Meet Ken Schwarz, author of the children’s picture book, The Happy Spacehip on Saturday, February 2, 2013 from 2:00-4:00 PM. Bright and colorful, The Happy Spaceship tells the simple story of three young boys who dream of flying in a spaceship so they plan and build their own from household items allowing their imaginations to take them to the places they have dreamt of.  This book is based on the author’s childhood memories growing up in a small town in the 1950's.  Times were simpler then and boyhood dreams of space travel lived only in their hearts and minds.
