Kylie The Crocodile in Paris: Story Time with Oliver & Lina Nordin Gee
Saturday 25th September 2021 — 11:00am to 12:00pm
3–9 year-olds and their grown-ups are invited to join us for a reading with author Oliver Gee and illustrator Lina Nordin Gee as they read their new picture book Kylie the Crocodile in Paris. Following the reading, Lina will show participants how to draw a crocodile and then the pair will answer questions about what inspired this “absolutely true story.”
This live, interactive virtual event will be hosted on Zoom. We will keep microphones muted during the reading part and art demonstration, after which participants will be encouraged to turn on their microphones and ask questions during the Q&A part of the event. Children will also be able to communicate with Oliver and Lina via chat throughout the event.

Online Conversation with Lilianne Milgrom
With more than 50 million books sold, translated into 49 languages, Marc Levy is the most widely read French author in the world.
We can't wait to hear him present his new novel, C’est arrivé la Nuit, the first volume of his new "Neuf" trilogy. The story follows nine computer hackers who are on a mission to take down the powerful villains of modern society. Think fake news, right-wing extremists, attacks on democracy. Sound a little too close to home? Voilà, the mark of a writer completely in sync with readers during these troubling times. Don't miss out!
We are thrilled to be partnering with "Un Endroit ou Aller" for this event! In French.
