SUMMARY:Children's Storytime with Author Jessica Yoon
DESCRIPTION:Caretakers\, parents\, and those young at heart- come join us Saturday\, June 27 at 12pm! \nWe are excited to get to host author Jessica Yoon here at the shop! Jessica will be leading us in a story time reading of her book The Legend of Ban-Dal. There will also be craft and coloring activities following the story time. We’ll have copies of Jessica’s books here at the shop for purchase! \n\nJessica Yoon is a #1 New York Times bestselling author from Philadelphia (Go Birds!).

When not writing\, Jessica enjoys Pilates\, spicy food\, and spending time with her husband and kids. You can find her online at jessicayoon.com\, on Instagram\, and Substack. \nAbout The Legend of Ban-Dal:\nThis modern Korean folktale about how the Asian black bear got its characteristic patch is a timely story about the delicate balance humans have with nature and about the trappings of greed and overconsumption. \nIn a small mountainside village\, people live in harmony with nature\, only taking as much as they need. But one day\, a mysterious visitor tempts the villagers with a luxurious life of leisure\, if only they catch more fish from their streams. The visitor’s suggestion brings the villagers wealth and relaxation\, until suddenly their nets come up empty. The villagers fear that a terrible beast has put a curse on their waters\, so a brave young girl journeys to confront the creature. Along her way\, she meets Ban-Dal\, a towering bear protecting the mountain forest. Is Ban-Dal her foe? Or a kindred spirit who will help her break the curse and restore harmony between nature and her people?

SUMMARY:Author Event - Kuleana with author Sara Kehaulani Goo
DESCRIPTION:You know we don’t open on a Monday without good reason\, so you know this is an event you don’t want to miss! \nWe are excited to host journalist and author Sara Kehaulani Goo to discuss her debut memoir- Kuleana. Joining Sara in conversation is local reporter Monica Eng. Together\, they’ll explore Sara’s story and the journey to sharing it. There will be discussion\, audience Q&A\, and a chance to have your book signed by Sara. \nFor folks interested in learning more about Hawai’i\, displacement\, and maintaining your connections to family\, community\, and culture. \nWe’ll be providing copies of Kuleana for sale at the event. This is a FREE event.  Tickets are not required- but definitely help us plan (linked below). \nAbout Kuleana: \nKuleana is journalist Sara Kehaulani Goo’s debut memoir about her family’s effort to save their ancestral lands on Maui\, and find herself along the way. When Sara’s father gets a surprise property tax bill that has gone up 500% on land that has been in their family for more than 175 years\, it puts a drama in motion to force tough decisions about what to do and what the land means to them. \nSara returns to Hawai’i seeking answers to her family’s history with the land and reports on her incredible discoveries – from ancient artifacts on a centuries-old heiau (temple) on the property\, to original documents from King Kamehameha III. She learns that her family’s story tells the larger story of the Native Hawaiian people and the near loss of their culture\, land and language. Meanwhile\, living in Washington\, D.C.\, she finds a surprising reconnection to her culture through a newfound practice of hula. Sara discovers the meaning of kuleana\, the Hawaiian word for responsibility\, about what we owe those who come before us and those who come after us. \nAbout the Author: \nSara Kehaulani Goo is a journalist and senior news executive who has led editorial teams at Axios\, NPR\, and The Washington Post. Her debut memoir\, Kuleana\, is a deeply personal and powerful reflection on family legacy\, Indigenous land rights\, and identity. She lives in Washington\, D.C.\, and is originally from Dana Point\, California. \nAbout the Moderator: \nMonica Eng is an award-winning reporter. She has worked in Chicago journalism for more than three decades starting at the Chicago Sun-Times and moving to the Chicago Tribune and WBEZ. She has served as an Axios Chicago reporter since the summer of 2021.
