Penguin Random House Winter Book & Author Festival

Thursday, December 8^th, 2022

We are excited to announce our Keynote speakers! Join us next month to listen in as these amazing authors discuss their latest works.

U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo, a member of the Mvskoke Nation, speaks about Remember (Random House Children’s Books), her picture book adaptation of her iconic poem.

Joy Harjo, the 23rd Poet Laureate of the United States, is an internationally renowned performer and writer of the Mvskoke Nation. She is the author of nine books of poetry, several plays, children's books, and two memoirs; she has also produced seven award-winning music albums and edited several anthologies.

SLJ chats with actor Max Greenfield (New Girl) about his hilarious companion picture book to I Don’t Want To Read This Book. His latest, This Book Is Not a Present (Penguin Young Readers) will make a bibliophile out of the

most reluctant reader.

Max Greenfield is a New York–born actor (New Girl; The Neighborhood) who is best known for being interrupted by his two beautiful children, Lilly and Ozzie, as he writes this bio. Max tries to tell them that this is important and to please leave him alone, but neither child believes this, as they are certain that Mommy is the one with more important things to do and Daddy just acts silly on TV sometimes.
