Hi all, 

I wanted to share information about a program we are hosting next month.

Thursday, April 16, 2015 @ 6:00 PM
Roseville Public Library 

Please join us for an evening with author Jean Alicia Elster. She is the
author of the novel _The Colored Car__ _which was selected as a 2014
Michigan Notable Book by the Library of Michigan. _The Colored Car__
_also won the 2014 Midwest Book Award in Children's Fiction and was an
Honor Book for the 2014 Patterson Prize for Books for Young People. 

Reading portions of her book in conjunction with the use of several
visual aids, author Jean Alicia Elster describes the process of
researching and writing The Colored Car, a book that explores the
struggles and personal growth of a twelve-year-old African American girl
after a train trip south to Clarksville, Tennessee in 1937. 

After speaking Jean Alicia Elster will be available to sell and sign
copies of her book. The special event price is $12.95 per book, payable
