As we approach Banned Books Week and we kick-off BPL's Books Unbanned Storytimes, join us for a unique opportunity to meet the authors of Jacob's New Dress (illustrated by Chris Case), a picture book about a young boy who wants to wear a dress to school. At this read-aloud event, we will also enjoy special activities to celebrate every child's freedom to read and express themselves. Recommended for children ages 3-8 years.

Space is limited and tickets are required; please pick up a ticket at the reference desk before the session you plan to attend.

Sarah & Ian Hoffman are the authors of Jacob’s New Dress, Jacob’s Room To Choose, and Jacob’s School Play: Starring He, She, and They! Their books have won numerous awards, including the #72 spot on the ALA’s list of the Top 100 Most Banned Books of the Decade. As business partners and spouses, Sarah & Ian have been working together on building a better world for over 25 years.
