Join us for a discussion with Michigan Notable author Lisa Sukenic about her book “Miles From Motown”.  Written in verse, it is a coming of age story of 7th grader Georgia Johnson.  The year is 1967 , Georgia’s family has moved and her brother has been deployed to Vietnam. She tries to cope by entering “The Spirit of Detroit” poetry contest hoping for a win!
