Welcome Rie Neal to the store for the launch of her middle grade novel, Space for Saffron!

Join us for a conversation around Rie Neal's middle grade novel, Space for Saffron! Rie will be in conversation about the book and then open up to audience Q&A and a signing.

About the book: A budding scientist must figure out how to help save her family’s cafe and impress at her new school’s science fair in this charming young middle grade read, perfect for fans of the Meena Zee and Front Desk series.

About the author: Rie Neal is a children’s book author who loves all things space. Growing up, she was often dragged on her grandpa’s unauthorized tours of NASA Ames, which she didn’t appreciate enough at the time. Eventually, though, she became a full-blown space fan, and began to write space-related books for kids. She also has a doctor of audiology degree from the University of Iowa, and is nationally certified as an audiologist through the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Today, she lives in the S.F. Bay Area with her husband and two teens, where they drag people on (authorized) tours of the NASA Ames visitor center.
