For the kids:
We're hosting Phil Mendez for a drawing demonstration and signing of his book, The Black Snowman.
Christmas is coming, and snow is falling on the city. Jacob and his little brother make a snowman out of the dingy snow on their street, and wrap their creation in a scrap of cloth they find. But the cloth is really a kente, an African storytelling shawl that has special, magical qualities. Soon, Jacob's snowman has come to life-and is about to teach him an unforgettable lesson about history, hope, heritage and faith.


For the Grown-ups:
Spend some time with our holiday dream team: Wade, our wonderful Random House Rep (and District Sales Manager) and Nicole (former Children's Department Manager of Vroman's Bookstore) currently represents Penguin Young Readers Group. Wade and Nicole will share some of their favorite books of the holiday season and help you find a gift for yourself or someone special on your list.
