Maris Wicks, Jane Yolen, Heidi Stemple, and Don Brown speak on a panel moderated by Laura Koenig on Saturday October 19th at 4:30pm for Boston Book Festival!
Press Release:
Pictures aren’t just worth a thousand words—they make learning about everything from history to science a thousand times more fun! We’ll talk with authors and illustrators who use the techniques of graphic novels to bring real-life topics to life. Don Brown takes readers to a dark time in U.S. history in The Great American Dust Bowl. Maris Wicks introduces us to three noteworthy primatologists (and the apes they love) with her illustrations to Jim Ottaviani’s Primates. And co-authors Jane Yolen and Heidi Stemple survey history’s great villainesses—from Jezebel to Lizzie Borden—in Bad Girls. Laura Koenig of the Boston Public Library hosts this visually captivating session.
