Worth a Read

Last year, the library hosted author Hena Khan here at the library. Hena is the author of several picture books and middle grade novels, including Amina’s Voice.  As a librarian, I’ve had the privilege of meeting and hosting many authors. It’s truly one of the perks of being a small town librarian. Hena, who is a generous and warm person, is definitely one of my favorites. While speaking at the library and schools, she shared about her life growing up as a Muslim in the United States, her culture, and her talents as an author. Here’s a link to a recent essay she had in the Washington Post that’s definitely worth reading.  https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2019/04/09/teaching-my-son-all-parents-stand-up-against-muslim-hatred/?fbclid=IwAR3NNT8h1UQG3lmFq3D5MiN0OXOhKlBy9MRLKfzciIllD2YpjlmgHzYoCNU&utm_term=.cbfdbdcc3e67
