We’re excited to welcome Raina Telgemeier for a “kick off to Summer reading” author tour! Meet Raina at one of the following community or student events. Each event will feature a 45 to 60 minute author talk, a question and answer session, and then a book signing. Each person is limited to two books to be signed. Thanks to our partners Wasilla Public Library, Bosco’s Comics Cards & Games, and the Anchorage School District. This program is supported, in part, by a grant from the Alaska State Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Friends of the Library.
