Kentucky author and illustrator, Morgan Coleman, will be reading her debut picture book This Cat is Fat and I’m Fine with That! at Louisville’s Purrfect Day Cat Café on August 24th. This event will feature a children’s storytime in the cat room at 10 AM, followed by a book signing immediately after.
Young children and their caregivers will be able to cuddle and play with kittens during the children’s reading, which requires registration since space is limited in the cat room. Following the reading, attendees can enjoy free treats and activities, and have the option to purchase a copy of the book to get it signed with a custom inscription by the author.
This Cat is Fat is a body-positive picture book, filled with humor and heart, about adopting a furry friend from a cat café. It was modeled after Purrfect Day, which is owned by Morgan’s brother, Chuck Patton. In fact, one of her own cats was adopted from the Louisville café. Morgan holds an MFA in Playwriting, but she discovered a passion for picture books after she got a job doing library storytimes, where she got to read hundreds of them! She lives with her husband, their daughter, and two fat, fluffy cats in Covington, Kentucky.
