Aimee Lucido is joining us for the launch of her amazing new middle-grade read: Words Apart!

This book opens with a definition: sororal. An adjective that means “having to do with sisters”. And that’s exactly what the story is. We follow Olive (who loves words) and Mattie (who loves drawings) — and despite their differences, the two girls are inseparable.

But with major shifts in their family and all the twists and turns of growing up, that begins to change. Told in a mixture of writing, comics, definitions, crossword puzzles, and doodles, this dynamic book is like no other. It’s hilarious, heartbreaking, and utterly fascinating.

Come celebrate it with us in-store! You might even learn a couple of amazing new words.

Time: 5:00 pm EDT
