Special Storytime: Winsome Bingham & C. G. Esperanza

Join us for the launch of Fish Fry Friday, the mouthwatering companion to Soul Food Sunday, written by Winsome Bingham and illustrated by Caldecott Honoree C.G. Esperanza.

One special Friday when school is closed, Grandson finally gets to join Granny for her day’s routine. Rods and reels, lures and lines, bobbers and baits are packed in Granny’s Jeep. Everyone cheers when Granny arrives at the pier—“the queen has arrived!” After reeling in the perfect catch together, they carefully scale and skin, cut and gut, batter and fry the fish into beautiful filets. But the family meal isn’t complete until Grandson adds his own special side dish to the table—made just like Granny taught Momma, and like Momma taught him.

Winsome will read her new story and C.G. will present an art demonstration.
