"Josh Funk writes silly stories and somehow tricks people into publishing them as books." Accomplished children's author/illustrator Josh Funk will be at G.Willikers! Books & Toys on Saturday, Oct. 5th from 1:00-3:00pm. His latest book How to Code a Rollercoaster. " Pearl and her trusty rust-proof robot, Pascal, are enjoying a day out at the amusement park. Spinning teacups, ice cream, and of course: rollercoasters! Through the use of code, Pearl and Pascal can keep track of their ride tokens and calculate when the line is short enough to get a spot on the biggest ride of them all–the Python Coaster. Variables, if-then-else sequences, and a hunt for a secret hidden code make this a humorous, code-tastic day at the amusement park!" Josh is the author of several books including Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast, It's Not Jack and the Beanstalk, and How to Code a Sandcastle. Please join us in welcoming Josh back to Portsmouth!
