The BookFest children’s luncheon will be held at Glen Oak Restaurant this year.  Tickets are limited to 30 attendees total. Author Marianne Malone will be in attendance to discuss her second book, Stealing Magic. All menu items are based on Malone’s book and its characters.

At least one member of each party in attendance at the children’s luncheon must purchase a copy of Marianne’s book, for a total luncheon ticket price of $30. All other members of each party will only pay $12 for the luncheon. This event is limited to 30 attendees. 

Children’s Luncheon Menu

All menu items will come with soda pop, coffee, tea or iced tea. There are 3 menu options for adults and 4 for the kids. 

There will be a craft project for children as well. Kids will be able to make their own secret portable staircase to take them to whichever room they dream of, as in the book.
