At McNally Jackson, we welcome Masha D'yans as she unveils her fantastic new childrens book, Razzle-Dazzle Ruby (Scholastic). Inspired by the fairy tales of her native Russia, Masha creates a stunning, interactive world for the adventurous Ruby and her dog Rocket. You may recognize Masha's beautiful watercolors from her original cards, artwork, even clothing, found in places like MOMA, Barney's, etc. And maybe you spotted Razzle-Dazzle Ruby in the latest Vogue Kids Russia. This Saturday, meet Masha as she reads Razzle-Dazzle Ruby and helps kids create their own dazzling art.
