The children, guides and parents of the Pine Room cordially invite you to put your grace and courtesy skills to use at a festive tea and storytime hosted by “Her Royal Highness, The Queen” (Pine Room Guide, Cathy Dorner) featuring award-winning children’s author and Childpeace parent, Elizabeth Rusch.

An elegant service for 4 includes all that’s essential for a proper party, and more. This package of teatime fun includes:

1.    Crisp white linens embellished with colorful portraits hand-drawn by and of every Pine Room child.  1 tablecloth, 4 napkins.

2.    An antique silver set with teapot, engraved tray, sugar, creamer, teaspoons, 4 vintage cups and saucers and sparkling party sugar.

3.    Signed copies of Elizabeth Rusch children’s books, donated by Pine Room Assistant Anastasia Shulevitz.

4.    A fragrant blend of special-edition Pine Room tea made with herbs selected and mixed by the children.

5.    A crunchy batch of Pine Nut biscotti lovingly baked from scratch by the children.

6.    And for lasting flourish and cheer, a vase filled with whimsical fabric flowers, handcrafted by the children.

It’s certain that this celebration will be recreated by your child often and long after Elizabeth Rusch and “The Queen” read stories and wave goodbye…

Date and location of “Teatime and Stories with the Queen” will be agreed upon by the winning bidder, Cathy Dorner and Elizabeth Rusch.
