FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 2003

Lavinia’s World Author Returns
to the Museum of the City of New York.

Lavinia Branca Snyder, once again at the Museum of the City of New York. Mrs. Branca Snyder signed copies of her books and talked to children about the world of fun characters and exciting adventures to be found in Lavinia’s World stories to many children.

“ I really treasure spending time with the children and it is exciting to see young readers getting so much fun and enjoyment from Lavinia’s World,” said Lavinia.

Children attending the party enjoyed chatting with the real live author behind Lavinia’s World and were delighted to take home a personally signed copy of their favorite Lavinia’s World adventure.
