About this Event

About Medicine Wheels by Byron Graves:
The American Indian Youth Literature and Morris Award-winning author of Rez Ball returns with the unforgettable story of a gifted young Ojibwe athlete learning to ride in his father’s footsteps while practicing for a skateboarding championship.

About Together We See by Ari Tison:
From the Pura Belpré and Walter Dean Myers Award-winning author of Saints of the Household comes an enthralling M**der mystery about a Bribri-American teenager searching for the truth behind her land-activist father's mysterious death on their Native territory in Costa Rica.

To attend: This event is open to the public, but registration helps us when considering spatial constraints. You can register for a ticket for free and preorder copies of and on Red Balloon's website. Additional copies of the books will be available for purchase during the event, but ordering ahead guarantees your copy.

Signing Guidelines: Following the event, the authors will sign and personalize copies of their books. If you would prefer not to stay for the signing portion, Red Balloon can have your books signed and personalized for you and will contact you when they're ready to be picked up.

Accessibility: Red Balloon Bookshop is wheelchair accessible and has a disability parking spot directly behind our store. If you have a disability or medical condition and have questions about or need other specific accommodations, please email [email protected] or call 651-224-8320.

Code of Conduct: Red Balloon strives to create a kind, safe, and welcoming space where everyone is treated fairly and thoughtfully, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, or ability.

We ask that everyone—booksellers and customers alike—follow these standards whether in our shared physical space or online.
