Author Visit: Karina Yan Glaser

Children's author Karina Yan Glaser will talk about her newest book, A Duet for Home, and her best-selling series, The Vanderbeekers. Presented in partnership with Cover to Cover Books.

Join us for a visit with children's author Karina Yan Glaser. Ms. Glaser, the creator of the best-selling Vanderbeekers series, is excited to share her newest book, A Duet for Home. This stand-alone book shares the story of June and Tyrell, two children living in a homeless shelter who explore the power of friendship, healing, believing in ourselves, and classical music. 

Originally from California, Glaser came to New York City for college and has stuck around for over twenty years. She has had a varied career teaching and implementing literacy programs in family homeless shelters and recruiting healthcare professionals to volunteer in under-resourced areas around the world. Now as a mother, one of her proudest achievements is raising two kids who can’t go anywhere without a book. She lives in Harlem with her husband, two daughters, two dogs, and three cats. 

This event is presented in partnership with Cover to Cover Books for Young Readers, which will be on site to sell copies of Ms. Glaser’s books. Registration is required and opens Apr. 23 at 10 am.
