Acclaimed local painter and author, Michael Hempstead, under his pen name Quixote Crazy, launches his new fantastical book for children. Michael will present his book with a talk, imagery, Q+A and book signing, with first edition copies available.
ABOUT Sun School:
Two sets of boy and girl twins discover that their very strange school (it is a giant yellow cake with candles burning on top of it) is above the Ancient Greek Underworld.
There they meet Venus, the goddess of love, who tells them that 3,000 years ago at Delphi they were prophesied as the only people with a chance of saving the world in the future, “two plus two will equal more.”
The Sun and the Earth are attracted by a strange magnetism which is distorting everything and making the world weird. However, only children can see this; no adult can.
So the children have to somehow get the grown-ups to see the truth, to stand any chance of saving the Earth from a terrible fate inflicted by the Sun, which should be its source of life, not death.
The story is funny and dramatic simultaneously, and has twists and turns of comical and fantastical events as it heads towards a stupendous conclusion.
