BOOK LAUNCH EVENT WITH ALYSON GERBER
|
|
Sunday, March 31, 11:30am
|
Join the author, Alyson, who grew up at our Temple, for a book reading and book signing.
Alyson's new middle grade novel FOCUSED features a girl caught between her love of chess and her ADHD. In a starred review, Booklist called Alyson Gerber's first novel, Braced, "a masterfully constructed and highly empathetic debut about a different kind of acceptance." With FOCUSED, she explores even further how, when life gives you a challenge, the best way to face it is with an open mind, an open heart, and the open support of the people around you.

What Makes Sammy Run by Budd Schulberg
It is a rags to riches story chronicling the rise and fall of
Sammy
Glick, a Jewish boy born in New York's Lower East Side who, very early in his life,
makes
up his mind to escape the ghetto and climb the ladder of success by deception and betrayal. It was later made into a long-
running
Broadway musical. Discussion led by Professor Jonathan Silverman.
