Community Event with Children's Literature Librarian Linda Salem



Hello, Children’s Literature scholars! 


We want to invite you all to join Children’s Literature Librarian, Linda Salem, in a public reading of author and illustrator Takeo Takei’s Aruki Taro. Takeo Takei is well-known by manga artists for his 139 kampon books and children's illustrated works. Aruki Taro has been somewhat forgotten, but Linda has translated it, giving us an introduction to Takei’s other works. Besides this introduction, the presentation will also include a history of Japanese illustration. The event is this upcoming Wednesday, October 20th, at 6:30 pm in the Shiley Special Events Suite at Central Library. The event is hosted by the San Diego public library and will be in-person.
