MOFAD is excited to welcome Carlos Matias in celebration of his new book, Emergency Quarters. This kid-friendly event will feature story time and Oishii strawberries!

Author Carlos Matias and Ezra Jack Keats Award–winning illustrator Gracey Zhang deliver a stunning picture book based on a finalist in the New York Times Metropolitan Diary “Best of the Year,” about a young boy in the city who tries his best to avoid spending his precious quarters on tempting local treats in case of an “emergency.” 

This program is ideal for kids ages 4 to 8 years. All kids must be accompanied by a grown-up. Tickets required for children only (each child ticket allows up to two accompanying adults free of charge).

Copies of Emergency Quarters can be purchased during the program from our partner bookseller, Kitchen Arts & Letters.
