Middle-Grade Author event with Rajani LaRocca and Anna Staniszewski

Meet middle-grade authors Rajani LaRocca and Anna Staniszewski and they read from and talk together about their newest books. Rajani LaRocca will introduce her book Red, White, and Whole, while Anna Staniszewski will be sharing her book The Wonder of Wildflowers.

About Red, White and Whole: “LaRocca showcases the best of what verse can do, telling a story that is spare, direct and true, every word and idea placed with intentional care. A sensitive coming-of-age story with all the makings of a new middle grade classic.” -- BookPage (starred review)

About The Wonder of Wildflowers: "While it can be read as a simple fantasy, the underlying themes that emerge about privilege and equal rights would make this ideal for a classroom read-aloud. The complexity of ideas included in a fantasy story intended for this age-range is remarkable." (School Library Connection)
