Join Jamar J. Perry at the Chevy Chase DC library for a summertime afternoon event. He will talk about his Cameron Battle middle grade series, answer questions and sign books.
Books will be available for purchase at the event.
When Cameron and his best friends are magically transported through the pages of an ancestral book to the fabled West African country Chidani, they find a kingdom in extreme danger and have to find a way to save the Igbo people.
Jamar J. Perry is the author of the Cameron Battle series and Jaden Powers and the Inheritance Magic. He received his PhD in literacy education, language, culture, and social inquiry from the University of Maryland, College Park. Before, he taught middle school language arts for four years, where the majority of the students were Black boys. Like Cameron and Jaden, he hopes that one day all Black boys can understand how magical and joyful they really are, no matter how different they may feel.
