Launch for Teacher’s Children’s Book Jan. 18

A launch party for “Magnificent Homespun Brown,” a new children’s book by Presumpscot Elementary School kindergarten teacher Samara Cole Doyon, will be held on Saturday, January 18. The event will run from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Indigo Arts Alliance, located at 60 Cove Street in Portland.

A review on Amazon for the book states: “Told by a succession of exuberant young narrators, Magnificent Homespun Brown is a story – a song, a poem, a celebration – about feeling at home in one’s own beloved skin. Samara Cole Doyon’s joyful book contains multitudes. With vivid illustrations by Kaylani Juanita, Samara Cole Doyon sings a carol for the plenitude that surrounds us and the self each of us is meant to inhabit.”
