About this Event

Join us on Saturday, May 30 for a storytime with picture book author Jocelyn Chung!

About the book:

Caregiving flows through a little girl’s family in so many ways, like a river connecting them all. Her grandfather cares for her by picking her up from school with a snack and a smile, and she cares for him by keeping him company at his doctors’ appointments with a snack and a smile. Her mother helps her grandmother get ready for the day, just as her grandmother once helped her mother. And when the relatives send packages to each other, their caring makes them feel closer. Through occasions big and small, it’s a comfort to know this river of love is ever-present, and her family will always be there for each other.

About the author:

Jocelyn Chung (JocelynChung.com) is an author and graphic designer. She also wrote the picture book When Love Is More than Words. She holds a bachelor of fine arts in graphic design and an MA in Asian American studies and has been featured in Harvard Kennedy School’s Asian American Policy Review, USA Today, and NPR. She loves exploring the intersection of thoughtful storytelling and communicative design. When she’s not designing or writing, you can find her doodling, café hopping, or on a food-venture somewhere between Los Angeles and Taiwan.
