In celebration of the newly released children's book "I Am Simone Biles," written by Brad Meltzer and illustrated by Christopher Eliopoulos, the Curiosity Cruiser will be giving away a limited number of copies to school-age children! Children are invited to board the Curiosity Cruiser vehicle to choose one book from a selection of "Ordinary People Change the World" titles from 4pm-6pm (or while supplies last). This event was made possible through a generous donation by Penguin Random House and the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation.
