Travel is limited right now; heck hanging out with your extended family and friends is off the table right now, but don't fret because for November ICPL has Teen Window to the World Book Bags. Escape reality and travel between and across worlds.
Register for the bag and recieve a book (randomly assigned,) a Korean face mask (because self-care is so important,) a Japanese snack (because eating has become a national quarantine past-time), a wanderlust sticker and a map of the world with stickers so you can plan all of the fantasic places you'll visit in your life (once air-travel and road-tripping is a go!). The clocks have gone back, it's dark at 5:30 pm so hunker-down and explore the bigger world around you!
Book Bags are available for pick up beginning November 3rd and are first come, first served. To register, click here.

About the Author
Victoria is the Teen Services Librarian.
This is a great short memoir about two incredibly talented humans who took a risk, poured their hearts into their art and never stopped grinding. The sparse language, authentic storytelling and illustrations will resonate with young people adamant on carving out their own individual paths in life; and those navigating the larger world while always striving to stay true to themselves. -Victoria
