The Library of Congress’ new National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature, Mac Barnett, led Storytime at our Book Bank. Mac (pictured at back) read from his graphic novel The First Cat in Space Ate Pizza with 5th graders from a local Title 1 elementary school and answered their urgent questions about reading and writing. Mac captivated the students, who each received a free, signed copy of his book, plus more free books they selected for themselves from our Book Ban shelves. Mac loved the experience as much as the kids did!
