Storytime for our Littlest Readers - Hands Up! by Breanna McDaniel

  • Kingsbury Commons 1100 Kingsbury Street Austin, TX, 78703 United States (map)

At this storytime, Austin Public Library will be reading Hands Up! by Breanna McDaniel, a story about a young girl who lifts her hands up in a series of everyday moments throughout her life and finally raises her hands in resistance at a protest march.

BookPeople and Austin Public Library will be in attendance to sell copies of the book and this event will be a fun and inclusive experience for readers of all ages.

We’re fans of the banned, and we think you should be too! Banned Camp is a partnership between Austin Public Library and BookPeople. Pease Park Conservancy is excited to participate in this program to help our littlest readers engage with the conversation around intellectual freedom at these early literacy building storytimes in Pease Park. We invite you to come together, engage with books that have been banned or challenged, and be part of the conversation.

An American Sign Language interpreter will be at this book reading to interpret the story alongside the reader.
