Meet the Author! K.E. Lewis

June 28, 2025 @ 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Free

Preparing for a plane trip might be hard enough, but what happens when you bring your pet rhinoceros with you? Chaos ensues!

With rhythmic, lyrical text and laugh-out-loud pictures, Never Take Your Rhino on a Plane is an instant classic that will delight readers from beginning to end. Join us for a special read aloud and Q&A session with up and coming author K.E. Lewis. K.E. was raised in Bishopville, South Carolina in a community โ€œrich in generosity and Blacknessโ€ that sparked his love for words. Now, K.E. brings his love of teaching, writing, and community to his childrenโ€™s books!

This event will take place at Independence Library (18 S 7th St).

Free books will be available for signing while supplies last. ALA attendees are encouraged to join!
