Monday, October 20
7 pm, Evanston Public Library, 1703 Orrington Ave.
Join us for a wonderful evening with G. Neri (left), author of Yummy, Ghetto Cowboy, and Chess Rumble, among others. Mr. Neri will be joined by illustrator Jesse Joshua Watson (right),
who has worked with the author on several titles. Both author and
illustrator will discuss their work, answer questions and sign books. In
an era when educators, parents, and students are pushing for more
diversity in children's books, Mr. Neri has long written fiction
featuring young African American men. His work is recommended for grades
5 and up. Children, parents and educators are most welcome. This event
is free, but registration is requested by clicking here or calling the library at 847 448-8625. G
