Erik is an elementary school student living in Maryland. He is a black belt in Tae Kwon Do who loves animals and spending time with his family and friends. Someday he hopes to become either an inventor, an archaeologist or a chef.
Erik was inspired to write "Butterflies Shouldn’t Wear Shoes" after a lesson about butterflies in his second grade science class. So he actually wrote this book when he was just 7. How inspiring!
Books will be available for purchase and Erik will be available for signings from 6pm to 9pm. Proceeds benefit the World Wildlife Fund, Erik's favorite wildlife charity.
