Kyle Lukoff is the author of many books for young readers. His debut
middle-grade novel, Too Bright To See, received a Newbery honor, the
Stonewall award, and was a National Book Award finalist. His picture book When
Aidan Became A Brother also won the Stonewall, and his book Call Me Max has
been banned in schools across the country. He has forthcoming books about
queer history, unicycles, breakups, and lots of other topics. While
becoming a writer he worked as a bookseller for ten years, and then nine
more years as a school librarian.

Each year the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) sponsors a
Children’s Literature Lecture geared toward adults who have an interest in
children’s books. The lecture features an author, critic, librarian,
historian or educator presenting a paper considered to be a significant
contribution to the field of children’s literature. This year the lecture
is hosted by Multnomah County Library.


A limited number of books will be available for purchase at the event.
