You are warmly invited to a special Local Author Signing with internationally recognized abstract artist, speaker, and disability advocate Melissa DiVietri at Barnes & Noble Holland.

This engaging community event highlights the importance of inclusion awareness, service animal education, and disability representation through storytelling, conversation, and connection. Melissa will be signing her children’s books, including A Tale of a Service Animal and The ABCs of Disability Etiquette — stories designed to help children and families better understand accessibility, empathy, independence, and the power of embracing differences.

Guests will have the opportunity to meet Melissa and her service dog, learn about real-life experiences navigating the world with mobility differences, and explore how creativity, courage, and education can help build more inclusive communities.

This event is perfect for families, educators, students, advocates, and anyone interested in meaningful conversations about representation and understanding. Come say hello, get your books signed, and be part of a positive and inspiring afternoon.
