Flintridge Bookstore & Coffeehouse will welcome Gabriel Gale, creator of “Ages of Oz,” on Monday, Feb. 5, at 4 p.m. The book is an adaptation and expansion of the “Oz” that everyone knows and loves.
“Ages of Oz” tells the story of Glinda’s transformation from a 13-year-old student uncertain of her future to the most powerful magician in all of Oz. The series addresses social justice and the importance of independent thinking during tumultuous political times in which illusion, fear, terror, distraction and unlawful imprisonment rule.
At this after-school event, Gale talks with publicist Rene Makrinos; signs the trilogy’s first book “A Fiery Friendship”; and gives a preview of Book 2, “A Dark Descent” (releasing May 2018). Both titles are written by Lisa Fiedler and illustrated by Sebastian Giacobino.
Flintridge Bookstore and Coffeehouse is located at 1010 Foothill Blvd. For more information, call (818) 790-0717.
