Virtual Celebration with Henry Winkler & Lin Oliver

Virtual Celebration with Henry Winkler & Lin Oliver

Presented by Anderson's Bookshops at Online/Virtual Space

The Emmy-award winning and beloved actor Henry Winkler is set to make a repeat visit to an Anderson’s Bookshop event. His fourth appearance and a guest the Anderson’s staff greatly anticipate. This time, Winkler and his writing partner, Lin Oliver, will visit from afar via Zoom, but the authors will be welcomed warmly just the same.

Fans will be entertained with the author conversation and a bookplate signed copy of the pair’s new installment in their popular Alien Superstar series for children. This time it’s Alien Superstar: Lights, Camera, Danger.

About the Book: Emmy Award winner Henry Winker and Lin Oliver are back for the second installment of the New York Times bestselling middle grade series that Diary of a Wimpy Kid author Jeff Kinney calls “truly out of this world!”

After escaping his oppressive red dwarf planet and landing a role on a popular Hollywood sitcom, Buddy Burger seems destined for high-flying success. His legions of fans love his six eyes, his suction cup feet, and even his excessive need for avocados. It seems nothing can stop his rise to super-stardom—until the arrival of Citizen Cruel, a shape-shifting Squadron member sent from Buddy’s home planet to bring him back by any means necessary. Will Buddy conquer this clever and unpredictable enemy? How long can he continue to keep his alien identity secret from his friends and fans? Is there enough guacamole on Earth to sustain him? And chips to go with it? Action-packed and full of laughs, this is the second book in the exciting New York Times bestselling middle grade series.
