Graphic Novelists Nadja Spiegelman and Sergio Garcia Sanchez

Takoma Park Maryland Library

Thursday, Apr. 9, 7:30 p.m.

 

Graphic novelists Nadja Spiegelman and Sergio Garcia Sanchez will present their new book for kids, "Lost in NYC: A Subway Adventure" on Thursday, April 9, at 7:30 p.m. In the book, Spiegelman and Sanchez  tell the story of a boy named Pablo, who gets separated from his schoolmates on a class trip and has to figure out how to navigate the NYC subway system. In a starred review, Kirkus noted that the book is "required reading for anyone, tourist or resident, mystified by or anxious about using arguably the greatest public-transportation system on the planet.." At our event,  Politics & Prose will be selling copies of "Lost in NYC," but the event is free and no purchase is required to attend.

Of course, I say that every year. But this year, with 33% more space is really good. It continues tomorrow.

Here's some pictures.
