Carren Jao celebrates a Filipino tradition that continues to this day
Third Place Books welcomes Carren Jao for storytime at our Seward Park store! Carren will be sharing her new book, The Shape of Love.
In this heartfelt ode to balikbayan boxes, a mom working in Los Angeles packs a large box full of special gifts and household items to send to her family living in the Philippines as a thoughtful act of connection between family.
This event is free and open to the public. All ages welcome! No RSVP required.
