This program takes place at Two Rivers High School in Mendota Heights. Connect with Junauda Petrus, author of The Stars and the Blackness Between Them, and engage in activities centered around the book at Teen Lit Con, an event where YA authors, books, teens, and fun collide. The free event runs 10am-3pm and is open to the public, but the event and activities are focused on teens. The goal is to give teens the opportunity to meet authors, learn about writing and publishing, and enjoy the literary fun. All readers of YA literature are welcome, but we want teens to feel that this event is for them. Sponsor: Friends of the Hennepin County Library.
Note: Although we invite you to read the book before this event, it is not required. Please note that speakers will discuss all aspects of the book. eBooks or downloadable audiobooks available for immediate download.
