It all starts when Maud finds a teapot that is obviously haunted (and very hungry). EEEK! The days continue with Maud’s attempt to sell spiders (and juice) from a sidewalk stand; a mega-toothy discovery; a ghost family taking over the dollhouse; and a visit to Agnes the witch, who brews up a dynamite soup. Then comes Maud’s yard sale, which is a lot of work but a great success, rounding out a very full week. But wait, could that be a teapot coming around again, on Sunday?In this slightly gothic tour through the days of the week, the delight is in the details as illustrations portray Maud and her family and friends among the familiar objects and activities of childhood, with just enough of a quirky twist to please the young vampire lovers among us.Lisa Anchin is an illustrator, author, and designer. She has long had a literary love of vampires and often ran around in a red cape and fangs as a child, not only on Halloween. She is the author-illustrator of the picture book The Little Green Girl, which won a Crystal Kite Award, and the illustrator of a number of other books for children. When not in her studio stringing words together and doodling, she loves meeting other kidlit folks and has long volunteered as the illustration coordinator for the Metro New York chapter of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. Lisa Anchin lives in Brooklyn with her family. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brooklyn/in-store-storytime-w-lisa-anchin-maud-and-the-very-eventful-week/100001993960063225 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Art, literary-art, Meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 30 minutes - Location: Books Are Magic Montague - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brooklyn - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Books Are Magic Montague - **lat**: 40.6945995 - **long**: -73.994642 - **full address**: Books Are Magic Montague, 122 Montague Street, Brooklyn, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/4e321b6f8e06990fecea06605609ba4c73517e1b46c8dc31e885b09ae0f5a01a-rimg-w1200-h600-dc871b1b-gmir.jpg?v=1784456124 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week being held? - **A:** In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week takes place on Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 11:00 am to Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 11:30 am at Books Are Magic Montague, 122 Montague Street, Brooklyn, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week? - **A:** In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week is organized by Books Are Magic. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "In-Store: Storytime w/ Lisa Anchin: Maud and the Very Eventful Week", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/4e321b6f8e06990fecea06605609ba4c73517e1b46c8dc31e885b09ae0f5a01a-rimg-w1200-h600-dc871b1b-gmir.jpg?v=1784456124", "startDate": "2026-08-15", "endDate": "2026-08-15", "url": "https://allevents.in/brooklyn/in-store-storytime-w-lisa-anchin-maud-and-the-very-eventful-week/100001993960063225", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Books Are Magic Montague", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "122 Montague Street", "postalCode": "11201", "addressLocality": "Brooklyn", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.6945995", "longitude": "-73.994642" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "\"Cozy, witty, and brimming with charm—a perfect introduction to chapter books for spooky-loving young readers.\" —Kirkus Reviews", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-07", "availabilityEnds": "2026-08-15", "validFrom": "2026-09-07", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/brooklyn/in-store-storytime-w-lisa-anchin-maud-and-the-very-eventful-week/100001993960063225" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-07", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-09-07", "url": "https://allevents.in/brooklyn/in-store-storytime-w-lisa-anchin-maud-and-the-very-eventful-week/100001993960063225", "price": 0, "name": "Free RSVP" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Books Are Magic", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/books-are-magic/22525923", "description": "Books Are Magic opened on May 1, 2017, in Cobble Hill.
