Happy from Cherokee Public Library! Come visit us this week and find a book to fuel your curiosity. We are open 10-4 Monday-Friday. See you soon!

It's Day 1 of and we're celebrating with help from past National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature Jacqueline Woodson!

What did the award-winning author have to say about books that helped spark her curiosity?

“My grandmother died just before I became pregnant with my daughter, Toshi. The fact that the two would never meet in this place led me to a curiosity about the generations of women in my family that I had never met. This led to the deep dive into the stories of my ancestors - Stories my grandmother and mother had told me and stories I found through family records and the oral histories of uncles, cousins and aunts. SHOW WAY was the result of that curiosity.”
