SUMMARY:Ripples Book Launch with author\, Katie Yamasaki
DESCRIPTION:This Earth Day\, celebrate author Katie Yamasaki’s new picture book Ripples with a story time\, kid activities & book signing. \n\n\n\n\nJoin author and muralist Katie Yamasaki as she celebrates the release of her newest picture book\, Ripples! The event will include a short talk from Katie and Michelle Spangler from the Mississippi Watershed sharing tips of what you can do to keep our Mississippi River clean\, along with kid-friendly activities\, and a book signing (with sales from Wild Rumpus Bookstore). \nRipples follows a young girl and her Aunty as they set sail on their river raft\, along the way passing friends and families engaged in caring for one another ― sharing food\, tending wounds\, and telling stories ― who ultimately join them in cleaning litter and trash from the river. Celebrated artist Katie Yamasaki’s newest picture book is a nuanced\, lyrical celebration of our connections to each other and the environment. With electric\, eye-catching illustrations\, Ripples reminds us of the value of care and the ways we can perform it for each other and for the world around us. \nKatie Yamasaki\, Photo Courtesy of Michael Cheung\nKatie Yamasaki is an award winning picture book author/illustrator and muralist.
