Join us at Thurmont Regional Library as we welcome graphic novelist Vera Brosgol to Frederick! Vera will discuss her new middle grade graphic novel Plain Jane and the Mermaid with Melinda Beatty, answer questions, and sign books!
Books will be available for purchase at the event. This event is free and open to the public. If you’d like to preorder your copy of Plain Jane and the Mermaid ahead of time, you can order here and select pickup for checkout with a note in the notes field that you’d like to receive the book at the event on May 7.
About the book: From Anya’s Ghost and Be Prepared author Vera Brosgol comes an instant classic that flips every fairy-tale you know, and shows one girl’s crusade for the only thing that matters–her own independence.
About the author: Vera Brosgol was born in Moscow, Russia, in 1984 and moved to the United States when she was five. Her first two graphic novels, Anya’s Ghost and Be Prepared, were published by First Second, and her debut picture book Leave Me Alone! was a 2017 Caldecott Honor Book. She’s also worked on storyboards for several animated films, including Coraline and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio. She lives in Portland, Oregon, with her dog Omar, a mere two hours from the sea.
