This month’s Tween/Teen Book Launch: The Mona Lisa Vanishes by Nicholas Day

This captivating historical mystery tells the true story of how the world’s most famous painting was stolen right off the walls of the Louvre in 1911, and the hunt to get it back.

During the launch, we’ll read the first few chapters aloud together, uncovering the intrigue behind this fascinating art heist. Afterward, you can check out the book to finish the story on your own and find out how the mystery unravels!

Program Highlights:

  • Read Aloud: Dive into the first chapters of The Mona Lisa Vanishes as a group and get hooked on the suspenseful mystery.
  • Take the Book Home: Check out the book and continue the adventure at your own pace after the launch.
  • Interactive Activity: Get hands-on with a fun, art-related activity inspired by the story and its famous subject.
