Sunday Signing with Solomon Donoho

05/19/2024 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

About Author Solomon Donoho:
Solomon is a young man with a plan. After helping his mom promote her books at markets and finding himself drug along to her storytelling workshops, he decided it was time to share a story of his own.
For the majority of his third grade school year (2022- 2023), he worked through ideas and finally decided to tell the tale of a DJ with superpowers. This combined his dream job of being a DJ with his love of video games and superhero movies.
He spent most of his fourth grade year learning the long process of publishing a quality book and is happy to have a great story to entertain and inspire other kids.
About "The Legend of DJ Awesome"
This isn't just any book—it's a thrilling journey packed with music and superheroes. When bad guys start causing trouble in Music City, DJ Awesome steps up. He uses his powers and mad DJ skills to fight back. It's like he's conducting a symphony of bravery and beats!
Every hero starts with a story, and this story might just inspire
you to write your own. Grab your headphones, tune into this epic
adventure, and let the rhythm guide your way!
The Legend of DJ Awesome is more than just a story—it's a challenge. A challenge to find the hero within you. It's a challenge to march—or dance—to the beat of your own drum. And trust us, once you start reading, you won't want to stop until you've danced through every page.
Bonus Material
At the back of the book, "Write Your Legend" helps readers learn how to create your own characters and worlds so you can write a legendary story of your own.
