Join award-winning author and translator David Bowles and New York Times-bestselling author Neal Shusterman in conversation about their most recent young adult works which address themes of resistance and perseverance through adversity. Bowles’ The Prince and the Coyote follows fifteen-year-old crown prince Acolmiztli through a harrowing journey to become Nezahualcoyotl, the iconic scholar, warrior, architect, poet, and ruler honored on the Mexican 100-peso bill. Shusterman’s Courage to Dream takes readers through five interlocking stories about the Holocaust that underlay one common story, all drawn from Jewish folklore and cultural history.
