Tahoe author releases Tahoe 123, book signing events planned

The latest book by Incline Village resident Kevin Sullivan has been released. In Tahoe 123, join Beary Bear and Cheeky Chipmunk as they count their way around Lake Tahoe. Busy Beavers, Dashing Deer, Merry Marmots, and more fun than you can count.

This is the companion book to the previously released Good Night Tahoe, the best-selling book about the Reno/Carson City/Tahoe region’s places, animals, and activities. In this new adventure, Beary and his friend, Cheeky, count some of the wonderful sights and experiences of Tahoe. Of course, it is full of fantasy and fun for the entire family. You can count on it.

This might just be your child's new favorite book to curl up with before bedtime.
