Nancy Patz is an award-winning author and illustrator of children's books, which often address emotionally sensitive topics. In "The Elephant with a Knot in His Trunk," Patz and orthodontist Stuart Sheer tell the story of an elephant born with a disability that keeps him from using his trunk as other elephants do. A graduate of Stanford University, Patz's paintings, prints and drawings have been exhibited in museums and galleries, and she often lectures to school and teachers' groups on her books and the art of the picture book.

Lecture admission is free, seating is limited and advance registration is requested. To RSVP online, visit www.hmh.org/RegisterEvent.aspx.
