*FAMILY STYLE AUTHOR TO VISIT BHS*

STYLE: MEMORIES OF AN AMERICAN FROM VIETNAM*, a moving young adult graphic

If your student would like to attend the author talk on Oct. 17 during 2nd
period, they may pick up a permission slip at the school library. A digital
version is also attached.


*Family Style* is a moving graphic memoir, written for young adults but
equally engaging for adult readers. Pham's first memory isn't a sight or a
sound. It's the sweetness of watermelon and the saltiness of fish. It's the
taste of the foods he ate while adrift at sea as his family fled Vietnam.
After the Pham family arrives at a refugee camp in Thailand, they struggle
to survive. Things don't get much easier once they resettle in California.
And through each chapter of their lives, food takes on a new meaning.

Please consider purchasing a book
<https://www.mrsdalloways.com/thien-pham-bhs-oct-17th-family-style> and
encourage your student to join us on *Tues, Oct. 17, 2nd period* for Thien
Pham's visit.
