Many thanks to Briana Rice at Michigan Public (formerly Michigan Radio) for featuring the Detroit Festival of Books on Wednesday’s episode of “Stateside” (jump to 31:00).
On the show were Alyce Hartman, Bookfest partner and executive director of Birdie’s Bookmobile, a non-profit organization addressing generational illiteracy patterns by getting books into the hands and homes of children and families in Detroit; and Bookfest volunteer Louie Meizlish.
Michigan Public and its book club, Michigan Public Reads, will have a booth at Bookfest and will be interviewing authors and giving away books and other prizes!
Bookfest is this Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Detroit’s Eastern Market!
