Please join us to celebrate Alex Gino's Stonewall Book Award for their wonderful book, GEORGE - one of our  favorite books of the year.

GEORGE is Alex's debut. When they started writing it in 2003, they had no idea how long of a journey it would be, but the hole in children's literature was clear, and they knew how they wanted to fill it.  Publishers Weekly, in a starred review, declared: * "Profound, moving, andas Charlotte would sayradiant, this book will stay with anyone lucky enough to find it."

When people look at George, they think they see a boy. But she knows she's not a boy. She knows she's a girl.

George thinks she'll have to keep this a secret forever. Then her teacher announces that their class play is going to be Charlotte's Web. George really, really, REALLY wants to play Charlotte. But the teacher says she can't even try out for the part . . . because she's a boy.

With the help of her best friend, Kelly, George comes up with a plan. Not just so she can be Charlotte -- but so everyone can know who she is, once and for all.

This event is free. Please register here.
