Mary Poppins to Land at Larchmont Bookstore

Dame Julie Andrews and her daughter Emma Walton Hamilton will be at the Voracious Reader in Larchmont tonight to promote their new children's book.

 

Both Larchmont and Mamaroneck see their fair share of well-known personalities: R&B singer Usher was spotted shopping on Palmer Avenue last year; X Factor star Carly Rose Sonenclar is originally from Mamaroneck; former Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner used to live in Larchmont.  

On Feb. 4, though, the celebrity most famous for her starring role in the beloved musical The Sound of Music, Dame Julie Andrews, will make a special appearance at The Voracious Reader in Larchmont to sign copies of her new children's book The Very Fairy Princess Follows Her Heart, which was co-written with her daughter, Emma Walton Hamilton.
