Book Signing for Greenville Author Beth Lindsay Templeton
 Greenville, SC, February 15, 2013 - Greenville author Beth Lindsay Templeton will be signing copies of her new children's picture book, A Coat Named Mr. Spot (Avenida Books, paperback, $9.95), at Fiction Addiction on Saturday, March 9th, from 11am-1pm.
Questions such as "Why does my classmate smell funny?" indicate your child is noticing socioeconomic differences between students. As a parent or grandparent, you may feel challenged to adequately and compassionately address your child's questions. A Coat Named Mr. Spot along with the included Parents' Guide will assist you in developing and continuing a conversation for helping your child empathize with classmates who may live in poverty.
 Beth Lindsay Templeton, Founder and CEO of Our Eyes Were Opened, Inc., a poverty education program, is a community activist, workshop leader and speaker, Presbyterian USA minister, consultant, and writer. For thirty years, she has interacted with people who are poor and marginalized, as well as with those who want to help people who have minimal resources. She is the author of Loving Our Neighbor: A Thoughtful Approach to Helping People in Poverty; Understanding Poverty in the Classroom: Changing Perceptions for Student Success; and Conversations on the Porch: Ancient Voices--Contemporary Wisdom. She and her husband have three married sons and four grandchildren.
