Deets: International bestselling children’s book author and National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature Mac Barnett joins actress Jennifer Garner, a passionate advocate for children’s literacy, for a conversation about great literature hiding in plain sight: the children’s picture book.

Picture books are a vibrant and sophisticated — yet underestimated — art form. Barnett and Garner will show us how these books work and what sets them apart from other ways of telling stories, challenging adults to reconsider their ideas about storytelling, reading and childhood.

This eye-opening, entertaining case for the picture book’s rightful place among our best literary art forms is a declaration: a deeper respect for picture books requires a deeper respect for children.

Join Barnett and Garner for this grown-up conversation about kids’ books.
