Series proudly presents Newbery Honoree author Lisa Yee and Caldecott Medal winning illustrator Dan Santat sharing their new middle-grade novel The Misfits #1: A Royal Conundrum. \nLisa Yee has taken a private-investigator course\, and it’s slightly possible that she’s a secret undercover operative. She’s also a Newbery Honoree and a National Book Award finalist for Maizy Chen’s Last Chance. Some of her other twenty-one novels are the groundbreaking Millicent Min\, Girl Genius; Stanford Wong Flunks Big-Time; and the DC Super Hero Girls series.

In 2023 he won the National Book Award for A First Time for Everything\, his middle grade graphic memoir. Dan is also the creator of the Disney animated hit The Replacements. He lives in Southern California with his family. Learn more at dansantatbooks.com or visit him on Instagram and Twitter @dsantat. \nLisa and Dan join us to give a shared presentation on their new book The Misfits\, a story about a super secret group of awkward undercover crime fighters. Olive Cobin Zang starts at a new school and it’s the strangest boarding school ever: a former castle turned prison that’s now a “reforming arts school”! But nothing could’ve prepared Olive for this school. There\, she’s lumped with a team of other kids who never quite fit in\, and discovers that the academy isn’t what it seems—and neither is she. In fact\, this school is a cover for an elite group of misfits who fight crime . . . and Olive has arrived just in time. Lincoln Peirce\, creator of Big Nate and Max & the Midknights\, says of the book\, “For any kid who’s felt like a misfit\, this crackling adventure packs a wallop.” \n***Please note that the book signing will be conducted on a first-come\, first-served basis. Upon entering the theater\, people wishing to have books signed will be given a number\, and the book signing will take place in numerical order after the on-stage presentation.*** \n
