Cindy C. Harris, a local Chattanooga mom and grandmother, will be visiting the gallery to sign her new children’s book, “Raoke and the Camp Raid” on Saturday, July 30, 2011 from 1:00 to 3:00pm.

On the surface, the story with the cute illustrations is the tale of the misadventures of a raccoon. Raoke (pronounced Ray-okee) has been taught to always be kind. But what does a raccoon do when his buddies are up to no good and he wants to do right? In “Raoke and the Camp Raid,” Raoke is faced with a tough decision. Will he remember the lessons his parents taught him, or will he be pressured into stealing food from the humans?
