SUMMARY:Anna Jordan for "Shira and Esther's Double Dream Debut"
DESCRIPTION:About the Book:\nThe switcheroo fun of The Parent Trap meets the showbiz spirit of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel in this timeless coming-of-age story about family\, friendship\, and following your dreams.   When Shira and Esther first meet\, they can hardly believe their eyes. It’s like looking in a mirror! But even though they may look identical\, the two girls couldn’t be more different. Shira dreams of singing and dancing onstage\, but her father\, a stern and pious rabbi\, thinks Shira should be reading prayers\, not plays. Esther dreams of studying Torah\, but her mother\, a glamorous stage performer\, wishes Esther would spend more time rehearsing and less time sneaking off to read books. Oy vey! If only the two could switch places . . . Would Shira shine in a big-time televised talent show? Would Esther’s bat mitzvah go off without a hitch? What’s a little deception\, when it means your dreams might finally be within reach? One thing is certain: Shira and Esther are going to need more than a little chutzpah to pull this off. But if they do\, their double dream debut is sure to be the performance of a lifetime. \nAbout the Author:\nAnna E. Jordan is an author\, poet\, bookseller\, and educator who lives in the Washington\, DC\, area. This is her first novel. \nEvent will be in person.

SUMMARY:The Green Way Reading Series
DESCRIPTION:About the Series:\nThe Green Way Reading Series is a monthly literary event based in Takoma Park\, MD curated by Elizabeth Bryant and Takoma Park’s Poet Laureate Taylor Johnson.
