Thoughtful Thursday – Mark Seth Lender on “Smeagull the Seagull”

Come and hear the true story of a wild sea gull who adopted two grownups as parents. Mark Seth Lender, producer, writer, photographer and Explorer-at-Large, is known to millions of listeners for his monthly broadcasts on LIFE ON EARTH (Public Radio International). His award winning children’s book SMEAGULL THE SEAGULL is illustrated by his wife Valerie Elaine Pettis, an internationally renowned graphic designer, and together they will elaborate upon the delightful, amazing story as they read it to the audience.

Smeagull the Seagull teaches young children that animals are precious and have needs and feelings and family, just like us. There are few places on earth without seagulls, both on shore and inland, and every child will find Smeagull captivating and yet familiar.

Children should bring adults, of any age. The authors will be happy to autograph copies of their book.
