Live discussion between children's book author + children's publisher about the importance of global storytelling for children. Colorful and fun, with time for brief Q&A.Spend an hour in conversation with Barefoot Books Senior Editor Kate DePalma and author Bunmi Emenanjo as they dive into the making of our brand new release I'll See You in Ijebu, and discuss the importance of global, authentic voices in children's literature.
I’ll See You in Ijebu follows a Catholic girl growing up in Lagos, Nigeria who takes a trip to visit her Muslim relatives in a countryside town to celebrate Eid al-Adha.
The Guardian (UK) says, “Her richly evoked experience, from sweltering cars and puff-puff hawkers to making pepper soup, will resonate with anyone whose family involves more than one heritage or tradition.”
RSVP requested (online or in-person).
This event is free.
