About this Event
Launch Event:
We're thrilled to welcome acclaimed author and Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator for the launch of their stunning new picture book, . They'll be in conversation with Newbery Honor-winning author .
On Fridays after school, Jamar takes the bus to meet Momma at the assisted living center where she works. There’s always someone interesting to talk to there, like Mr. Dillon, who twirls and slides through the halls; Mr. Riff, who wears a suit and plays guitar in his room; and Miss Neely, who teaches Jamar to garden.
But one night, Jamar is told that Miss Neely has moved on.
Funerals are for saying goodbye, but Jamar doesn’t want to say goodbye to Miss Neely. After all, why didn’t she say goodbye to him?
This touching tale is a tribute to cross-generational friendship, showing young readers how love endures through grief. With musical text and vivid illustrations, it's a beautiful read that you just can't miss. Join us in-store as we celebrate its release!
Thursday, September 3rd at 6pm at Our 17th St Store!
