Virtual: ‘Hold Tight, Don’t Let Go’: Reading with Author Laura Wagner

Hold Tight, Don’t Let Go follows the vivid story of two teenage cousins, raised as sisters, who survive the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti. Join the Institute for the Study of the Americas for a webinar with author Laura Rose Wagner, who will provide reflections on writing the book and read selected excerpts from the YA novel, which is best suited for grades 9 and up. A Q&A session with the author will follow. This event is generously funded with Title VI funds from the U.S. Department of Education.
