If you’re planning to attend the Texas Library Association conference in Fort Worth this year, please note this schedule change!!
Hear Nia Vardalos, Academy Award Nominated actress and writer, talk about her newly published book, INSTANT MOM.
Complimentary copies will be available for signing after Nia’s talk!
1:15-1:50pm
Room 202 AB, level 2 in the Fort Worth Convention Center
With her signature wit and candor, Nia Vardalos will describe her and husband Ian Gomez’s bumpy road-to-parenting story and how they met their daughter when she was three years old. In her new book, Instant Mom, Vardalos describes transitioning the toddler into her new home and also explores the challenges all new moms face—from sleep to personal grooming to navigating preschool. With her first steps into the Parents Club, Vardalos learns that whether via biology, marriage, or adoption… motherhood comes in many forms, and is the same.
We look forward to seeing you in Fort Worth! Please stop by Booth 2233 and say hi!
