Join us the third Saturday of each month from -9am-10am for this children’s story hour featuring local bipoc authors. In collaboration with Omega Psi Phi and Read with Me Mn.

Our featured author for July’s Omega D.E.A.R is Crown Shepherd. Crown’s books, Black Girl, Black Girl and Black Boy, Black Boy, are a spin on Brown Bear, Brown Bear and are embedded with affirmations; they encourage Black children to see themselves as heroes of their own stories, imagining futures as doctors, judges, or any role they aspire to.
