Miss Sue will have the big TV set up and we can all gather round to hear Dan Santat, as he inspires tweens and teens to tell their own stories through graphic novels. His award winning book, A First Time for Everything, is a graphic memoir based on his own awkward middle school years and the trip to Europe that changed his life.

This is one a new series of free, live-streamed author talks made possible through the Library’s partnership with Library Speakers Consortium (LSC). You can learn more about and sign up for upcoming presentations for kids and adults on our LSC microsite, as well as watch recordings of presentations that you were unable to attend live.
