Author Storytime w/ Robert Liu-Trujillo

Oakland-based author and illustrator, whose work explores themes of identity, history, family, mixed heritage, literacy, and agency, joins us for storytime, reading from his latest storybook Fresh Juice.

About Fresh Juice: When Art’s father can’t get over a cold, Art knows exactly what his daddy needs: some delicious sick-fighting juice! After looking through the fridge and cupboards, they discover they’re missing a key ingredient–ginger. But finding some ginger will take them downtown, to the farmers’ market, to the food co-op, to the West African grocery … to an unexpected encounter that brings everyone together, and results in a tasty celebration.
