The Ladd Public Library is hosting a Meet and Greet with Ladd residents and authors, Noah and Julie Hollinger, on Saturday, February 8th at 11:00am. There is no charge for this program. Please stop by or call the Ladd Public Library at (815) 894-3254 to register in advance but walk-ins will be welcome.

Noah and Julie recently wrote the book, Mangiamo! Although the book is fiction, it is a story any family that gathers the generations to prepare and eat meals together will find familiar. Don’t miss out on meeting them personally for conversation and book signings after a brief speech.

Copies of their book will be available for sale at the Meet and Greet and can also be purchased on Amazon.com

A copy of the book is also available for checkout at the Ladd Public Library.

BOOK OVERVIEW:

What’s more important than family? Nothing! And what brings family together? Good food!  We welcome you into noni’s kitchen as she is preparing a bowl of her famous ravs…er…tortellini. Why is the name different? There is a story about that! Taking a trip back in time, meet the Corpozzi family who are moving to America to open their own Italian restaurant. But there’s a problem, the mayor of Tortellini Town.

This fun keepsake story will bring you back to memories of the scents and tastes of cooking with family.  Inside you will find the kinds of stories you would share from across the table over a scrumptious meal.
