SUMMARY:Author Shelby Van Pelt: An Exploration of Friendship\, Reckoning\, and Hope
DESCRIPTION:An Exploration of Friendship\, Reckoning\, and Hope with novelist Shelby Van Pelt\nWednesday\, August 21 at 7:00 pm via digital live-stream \nREGISTER HERE \nWe invite you to join us as we chat with the amazing New York Times bestselling author Shelby Van Pelt about her beloved novel Remarkably Bright Creatures. You don’t want to miss this deep-dive exploration of friendship\, reckoning\, hope\, and so much more! \nRemarkably Bright Creatures is a luminous debut novel about a widow’s unlikely friendship with a giant Pacific octopus reluctantly residing at the local aquarium—and the truths she finally uncovers about her son’s disappearance 30 years ago. \nAfter Tova Sullivan’s husband died\, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium\, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope\, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son\, Erik\, mysteriously vanished on a boat in the Puget Sound over 30 years ago. \nAs she works\, Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus\, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine\, but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight tentacles for his human captors—until he forms an unlikely friendship with Tova. \nEver the detective\, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova’s son disappeared. As his affection for Tova grows\, Marcellus must use every trick his old\, invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it’s too late. \nCharming\, compulsively readable\, and full of wit\, Shelby Van Pelt’s debut novel is a beautiful exploration of friendship\, reckoning\, and hope–a reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible. Register now for a conversation you just don’t want to miss! \nAbout the Author: Shelby Van Pelt’s debut novel\, REMARKABLY BRIGHT CREATURES\, was published by Ecco/HarperCollins (US) and Bloomsbury (UK) in Spring 2022 and was an Instant New York Times bestseller and has sold a million and a half copies. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest\, she’s now missing the mountains in the Chicago area with her husband and two children.

SUMMARY:The Golden Ticket to College Admissions Is Not What You Think: Redefining Success for Parents of Teens with Irena Smith\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:The Golden Ticket to College Admissions Is Not What You Think: Redefining Success for Parents of Teens with Irena Smith\, PhD\nThursday\, August 15 at 2:00 pm via digital live-stream \nREGISTER HERE \nAnother college application season is around the corner\, and stress is already beginning to ratchet up for teens and their parents. You’re invited to join us for this must-watch talk by Irena Smith\, PhD. You will hear about constructive and healthy ways to approach the college application process\, preserve your relationship with your teen\, and help them define success on their terms instead of chasing the elusive “golden ticket.” \nIrena is a former Stanford Admissions Officer who has spent 18 years advising accomplished\, tightly-wound students in Palo Alto and around the world. She saw firsthand the extreme measures parents took to help their children gain admission to highly selective colleges and the toll it took on the children as well as on their parents. \nAt the same time\, Irena’s own children struggled with developmental delays\, learning differences\, severe depression\, and anxiety. She kept her double life—successful college counselor at work\, anxious mom at home—tightly under wraps for years until a stunning realization: she was exactly like the anxious parents of the students she worked with\, all of whom were equally terrified about their children’s future. Irena’s memoir\, The Golden Ticket: A Life in College Admissions Essays\, which candidly explores her personal as well as professional life\, was published in 2023\, and she has since devoted her time to speaking out about hard things: the heavy burden of generational expectations\, teen and young adult mental health\, and the importance of embracing a broader\, more generous vision of what it means to succeed. To learn more about Irena’s personal experience as a parent\, professional experience as a college admissions officer\, and leave with tips on how to help your child approach the application process in practical\, healthy ways–register now! \nAbout the Author: Irena Smith is an author\, former Stanford admissions officer\, independent college counselor\, and mother of three extraordinary children. She emigrated from the former Soviet Union with her parents when she was nine years old. In spite of her fierce insistence that she would never\, not ever\, learn English\, she went on to earn a BA in English and then a PhD in Comparative Literature (both from UCLA\, where she received a Distinguished Teaching Assistant Award and Dissertation Year Fellowship). Irena taught literature and composition at UCLA and Stanford before transitioning to college admissions\, college advising\, and writing. Her recently published memoir\, The Golden Ticket: A Life in College Admissions Essays is the winner of the Story Circle Network’s Gilda Award\, named in honor of comedian Gilda Radner to recognize honest\, authentic writing that “makes us laugh even when we want to cry.” It’s been described by Forbes as “captivating and smart… a potential antidote to the fevered belief that being admitted to an elite college will spell the difference between a successful life vs. a doomed future.” She has given a TEDx talk on humanizing the college application process and writes about parenting\, college admissions\, and redefining success in her weekly Substack newsletter\, The Golden Ticket (is not what you think). You can also find her on Substack at Personal Statements.

Have you ever wondered if plants could grow in outer space? Or how the space station doesn’t break down in outer space? Or how astronauts go to the toilet in microgravity? \nBehind the Scenes at the Space Station is a treasure trove of information. Did you know that during a 24-hour period\, the space station completes 16 orbits of Earth and the astronauts on board see 16 sunrises and sunsets every day? Or that the International Space Station is so enormous that it was launched in pieces and constructed in orbit? \nBrimming with astonishing visuals\, step-by-step explanations of everyday space work in action\, and job profiles of the adventurous people who make it happen\, Dr. Levasseur’s tour Behind the Scenes at the Space Station is the perfect way to spend an hour and experience life in space. \nRegister now for your all-access pass to a spectacular home in space! \nAbout the Author: Dr. Jennifer Levasseur is a proud graduate of the University of Michigan (BA\, 1999). She received an MA from George Washington University (2002) and a PhD from George Mason University (2014). Her first book\, published in 2020\, examined the cultural significance of astronaut photography. She is the responsible curator for the Museum’s astronaut cameras\, chronographs\, the Space Shuttle\, and International Space Station programs. In 22 years at NASM\, Jennifer has worked on artifact loans\, a biennial museums conference\, and numerous digital projects. She curated the 2015 exhibit Outside the Spacecraft: 50 Years of Extra-Vehicular Activity\, co-curated One World Connected\, and is lead curator for the forthcoming At Home in Space gallery. \nJennifer started her Smithsonian career with an internship in the National Portrait Gallery\, where she cataloged photographs and developed strategies for recording portrait information in the museum’s artifact database.

SUMMARY:Learning the Power of Poetry with Bestselling Author Elizabeth Acevedo (9th-12th)
DESCRIPTION:Learning the Power of Poetry with Bestselling Author Elizabeth Acevedo (9th-12th)\nTuesday\, July 23 at 2:00 pm via digital live-stream!    \nREGISTER HERE \nYou’re invited to learn about the power of poetry with Elizabeth Acevedo! In this exciting author conversation and Q&A\, Acevedo will provide a short reading from her National Book Award winning and New York Times bestselling novel-in-verse\, The Poet X serving as the backdrop to this amazing chat! \nThe Poet X is about an Afro-Latina heroine who tells her story with blazing words and powerful truth. Xiomara Batista feels unheard and unable to hide in her Harlem neighborhood. Ever since her body grew into curves\, she has learned to let her fists and her fierceness do the talking. But Xiomara has plenty she wants to say\, and she pours all her frustration and passion onto the pages of a leather notebook\, reciting the words to herself like prayers—especially after she catches feelings for a boy in her bio class named Aman\, who her family can never know about. \nWith Mami’s determination to force her daughter to obey the laws of the church\, Xiomara understands that her thoughts are best kept to herself. So when she is invited to join her school’s slam poetry club\, she doesn’t know how she could ever attend without her mami finding out. But she still can’t stop thinking about performing her poems. Because in the face of a world that may not want to hear her\, Xiomara refuses to be silent. \nA virtual author talk you don’t want to miss–come create out loud with Elizabeth Acevedo! Register now! \nAbout the Author \nElizabeth Acevedo is the New York Times-bestselling author of The Poet X\, which won the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature\, the Michael L. Printz Award\, the Pura Belpré Award\, the Carnegie medal\, the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award\, and the Walter Award. She is also the author of numerous other titles including Family Lore; With the Fire on High\, which was named a best book of the year by the New York Public Library\, NPR\, Publishers Weekly\, and School Library Journal; and Clap When You Land\, a Boston Globe–Horn Book Honor book and a Kirkus finalist. Acevedo has been a fellow of Cave Canem\, Cantomundo\, and a participant in the Callaloo Writer’s Workshops. She is a National Poetry Slam Champion\, and resides in Washington\, DC with her husband.
