All LA County Library locations will be closed on Friday, June 19 in honor of Juneteenth. As always, our Digital Library is open 24/7.
Join New York Times bestselling author Max Brallier for a talk about The Last Kids on Earth book series and the animated series on Netflix. Max will share how he came up with the different monsters as well as the unique ways to beat them.
Ever since the monster apocalypse hit town, average thirteen year old Jack Sullivan has been living in his tree house, which he’s armed to the teeth with catapults and a moat, not to mention video games and an endless supply of Oreos and Mountain Dew scavenged from abandoned stores. But Jack alone is no match for the hordes of Zombies and Winged Wretches and Vine Thingies, and especially not for the eerily intelligent monster known only as Blarg. So Jack builds a team: his dorky best friend, Quint; the reformed middle school bully, Dirk; Jack’s loyal pet monster, Rover; and Jack’s crush, June. With their help, Jack is going to slay Blarg, achieve the ultimate Feat of Apocalyptic Success, and be average no longer! Can he do it?
