Picture Books & Java Virtual Book Club

December 19, 2026: Picture Books & Java book club hosted by Margaret Mangan, Mid-Atlantic member and volcanologist writing kid-lit with grit. Virtual meet-up 10:00-11:00AM ET.

This month’s theme is Immigration Stories. Join our read-aloud hour with give-and-take discussion of: WHERE BUTTERFLIES FILL THE SKY (Zahra Marwan); THE ENDLESS SEA (Chi Thai & Linh Dao); GOODBYE, KOI (Jack Wong). Can’t find the books in your library? No worries! We’ll screen-share Kindle versions so we can read them together.
