FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Angie Roberts Harris to Launch Two Heartwarming Children's Books in Branson: "Finding Fred Experiences an Ozark Mountain Christmas" and "Papa's Magical Day!"
BRANSON, MO, [October 16, 2024] – Local author Angie Roberts Harris, a proud resident of the Ozarks, is set to celebrate the launch of her two latest children's books with a special event in Branson. The double book launch, themed "Step Into the Story," will occur on October 22 from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the Stone Castle Hotel at 3050 Green Mountain Drive.
The event will feature giveaways, door prizes, and a range of interactive experiences designed to bring these enchanting stories to life.
The highlight of the evening will be the debut of Finding Fred Experiences an Ozark Mountain Christmas, a story that resonates deeply with Angie's love for Branson.
The book follows Fred, a young boy with a long Christmas wish list, as his parents guide him on an unexpected adventure through Branson. Along the way, Fred experiences the magic of live entertainment and learns that the holidays are about much more than just "stuff."
Reflecting on her own experiences, Angie shares, "Back in the '80s, when my parents, my little kids, and I visited Branson, we attended countless shows. My kids would dance in the aisles, and they'd always leave dreaming of becoming musicians. I cherished watching them approach the entertainers with photos or brochures, striking up conversations and collecting autographs. It was more than just getting a signature—it was a chance for them to be social, connect with the performers, and experience the magic of live entertainment. I wanted to re-capture that moment when my kids fell in love with the live music industry."
In a special nod to these cherished memories, Finding Fred includes an autograph section, allowing young readers to collect autographs.
Papa's Magical Day!, an enchanting tale inspired by Angie's family trips to Disney World in Orlando, will also launch at the event. The stunning illustrations story captures a special day shared by a child and her papa.
Angie reveals, "This story is inspired by our family trips to Disney World and how my husband helped our little one navigate the challenges of general anxiety disorder during those adventures. Working with Kevin-John, who brought these experiences to life through his art, has been a career highlight for me—his illustrations capture the heart and emotion of our journey perfectly."
The renowned Kevin-John’s art has been showcased at major events throughout the country as well as on ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, Spike TV, The Golf Channel, at the Super Bowl, Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland, and on the PGA Tour. Known for painting with color vibrancy and stylized realism, he has been chosen by leading companies, including Disney, Lucasfilm, and Marvel, to be the official artist for many of their sports and pop culture-themed products.
Angie invites families, book lovers, and Branson community members to the Stone Castle Hotel for an evening of celebration and storytelling. The event promises to be a magical experience, with opportunities for attendees to "step into the story" and immerse themselves in the worlds of Fred and Papa.
