Children ages 4 and older with a parent/caregiver are invited to join authors Ali Kamanda and Jorge Redmond at the Main Library on Wednesday, September 25 at 6:00pm for a discussion and signing on their soon-to-be-released picture book, Black Girl, Black Girl. 

Through illustrations and a positive message, Black Girl, Black Girl draws on the role models that came before us and pays tribute to many strong and inspirational female role models in Black history to encourage young Black girls to rise with passion and to trust in their fierce spirit and magnificent grace. 

Black Girl, Black Girl is the sophomore release co-authored by Kamanda and Redmond. In 2022, the college friends teamed up and published their debut picture book, Black Boy, Black Boy. Copies of both Black Girl, Black Girl and Black Boy, Black Boy will be available for purchase from Source of Knowledge Bookstore at the Edison Public Library’s September 25 event. 

Registration is suggested but not required.
