Do you love the Lunch Lady books, or graphic novels in general? You will be thrilled to know that author Jarrett J. Krosoczka is coming to Ipswich for an in-person author event. The event will be held on August 15 at 6 p.m. in the Selectmen’s Meeting Room at Ipswich Town Hall, 25 Green Street in Ipswich. Online registration is required at www.ipswichlibrary.org Click on Events. Click on the program date and a registration form will appear. Seating is limited. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult caregiver. The summer theme for Massachusetts libraries is Find Your Voice and this author will be able to help young readers and writers do just that. Krosoczka will do a presentation on how to make comics, share some quick drawing tips, offer a Q&A and a book signing. His books will be available to purchase with the help of The Book Shop of Beverly Farms. He is the author of the Lunch Lady and Star Wars Jedi Academy series of graphic novels. Krosoczka’s most recent books, Hey, Kiddo and Sunshine are for Young Adult readers and we extend this program invitation to all ages.
