Choose Your Own Adventure books — the fourth bestselling children’s series of all time — are back and as much fun as you remember. Join us in conversation with Griffin McElroy, popular podcaster and co-author of the New York Times bestselling graphic novel series The Adventure Zone, as he discusses his first-ever interactive book: The Stowaway, a hilarious science fiction thrill ride through a war-torn galaxy. McElroy dives into the importance of writing stories for young readers, how imagination and comedy can enrich our lives and relationships, and how engaging in play as a form of storytelling can ultimately lead to community building.

A book signing will follow this event.
