Recommended Read

"This is a funny and complex book motivated by questions from the author's six-year-old son, questions that are sparked in the years leading up to Trump’s election as her son forms his identity as a young brown boy. Throughout this uniquely illustrated graphic memoir, Jacob explores her most formative conversations about race, color, sexuality, family, and love. I enjoyed her voice so much that I read her novel 'The Sleepwalker's Guide to Dancing' too!'" --Jennifer, Patron Services

Library Stories
“I like this place. I can’t wait to explore it.” - A child talking to a caregiver 
I walked a learner over to the Teen Space for Conversations in English. She was from China. As we walked, she told me how great it is that the library has a class for people like her, because they can meet each other and talk and learn about this country. She wanted me to thank the volunteers and the library and was just effusive with her appreciation. - Karen Bowen, BoulderReads Program Coordinator
Many of our events are generously funded by the 
Boulder Library Foundation.
