WHITEHALL TWP., Pa. \u2013 Friday is National Dinosaur Day, and an 8-year-old from South Whitehall Township took his love for the creatures to a new level.<\/p>\n
Owen Oselkin wrote and published a book about them!<\/p>\n
He had his first book signing at the Barnes and Noble in the Lehigh Valley Mall on Friday, for “Oh Dinosaur, Oh Dinosaur.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
Owen tells us his book started as a song he created during Covid to stay busy, and then he decided to turn his work into a book.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Oh Dinosaur, Oh Dinosaur” explores the unthinkable ties between ancient dinosaurs and modern poultry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I think it was fun and I think it was fun to make it,” said Owen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We’re just so excited and the whole community has come and supported him which is wonderful,” said Amy Oselkin, Owen’s mom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Owen told us he’s already planning his next book, which will be about birds.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WHITEHALL TWP., Pa. \u2013 Friday is National Dinosaur Day, and an 8-year-old from South Whitehall Township took his…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":193930,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[214,119,121,120,232],"class_list":["post-194146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-allentown","tag-_homepage_top_stories","tag-allentown","tag-allentown-headlines","tag-allentown-news","tag-allentown-area"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=194146"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194146\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/193930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=194146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=194146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=194146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
