Join the exciting "An Evening with Author and Illustrator Thi Bui" event presented by New Castle County Libraries. As part of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Big Read Program, this event is a must-attend for literature enthusiasts. Thi Bui, a talented author and illustrator, will captivate the audience with her discussion about her remarkable work. Following the talk, there will be a special author signing session, offering an opportunity to personally connect with Thi Bui. 

Thi Bui's journey is truly inspiring. Having been born in Vietnam, she made her way to the United States in 1978, alongside the wave of refugees known as the "boat people," seeking solace after the Vietnam War. Her debut graphic memoir, "The Best We Could Do," paints a vivid picture of her family's experiences before, during, and after the war. This exceptional work has garnered numerous accolades, including being selected for an American Book Award, a National Book Critics Circle finalist in autobiography, and an Eisner Award finalist in reality-based comics. It has also been recognized by influential figures such as Bill Gates, who included it in his top five picks for 2017. Additionally, Thi Bui's talent as an illustrator shines in the picture book "A Different Pond," written by the renowned poet Bao Phi, for which she received a Caldecott Honor. 

Make sure to mark your calendars for this extraordinary event on February 22, 2024, at The John Dickinson School in Wilmington. Admission is free, so seize this opportunity to delve into the world of Thi Bui's incredible storytelling and artistic prowess.
