Featuring John Schu on Friday, January 31!
John Schu has made a career out of advocating for the people and things he cares about most: kids, books, and the people who connect them. He is the children’s librarian for Bookelicious and the New York Times best-selling author of Louder Than Hunger; This Is a School, illustrated by Veronica Miller Jamison; This Is a Story, illustrated by Caldecott Honor artist Lauren Castillo; Ruthie Rose’s Big Idea, illustrated by Holly Hatam (publishing in March 2025); and The Gift of Story: Exploring the Affective Side of the Reading Life. John Schu lives in Naperville, Illinois.
Featuring Mychal Threets on Sunday, Febuary 2!
Mychal Threets is a librarian, literary ambassador, and the library’s number one fan (according to himself, admittedly). He got his first library job as a library shelver at the library he grew up in and worked his way up to become Supervising Librarian of that very same library. He talks about mental health in hopes that it’ll help others in their mental health journey. He is a recipient of the 2024 “I Love My Librarian” award from the American Library Association, is one of School Library Journal’s 2024 Movers and Shakers, and one of TIME Magazine’s 2024 Next Generation Leaders.
