Award-Winning Nonfiction Children’s Book Author Steve Sheinkin

6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Daniel Boone Branch

St. Louis County Library Foundation’s Reading Garden Series for Young Audiences Presents Award-Winning Nonfiction Children’s Book Author Steve Sheinkin, author of “BOMB: The Race to Build–and Steal–America’s Most Dangerous Weapon–Graphic Novel Edition.” (Doors open at 6:00 p.m. Seating is limited.) Steve Sheinkin presents the highly-anticipated graphic novel adaptation of the award-winning nonfiction book “Bomb.” In December of 1938, a chemist in a German laboratory made a shocking discovery: When placed next to radioactive material, a Uranium atom split in two. That simple discovery launched a scientific race that spanned three continents. This is the story of the plotting, the risk-taking, the deceit, and genius that created the world's most formidable weapon. Combining science and spycraft, this is the story of the atomic bomb.
