Only 21% of Americans know which presidents are on Mount Rushmore, but more than half can name at least two members of the cartoon Simpson family. Richard Lederer has written American History for Everyone to help make the knowledge of our nation's history at least match Americans' knowledge of the Simpsons. In his presentation, Dr. Lederer will share some of the most informative and entertaining stories from his book. Dr. Lederer is the language columnist for The San Diego Union-Tribune and the author of over 60 books on language, history, and humor, including his best-selling Anguished English series. This event is free to attend thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Mission Hills-Hillcrest/Knox Branch Library.

Picture it: San Diego, CA 2024 ‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the store, each department was dripping with Yuletide decor. Sophia was nestled all snug in her bed, while visions of sugar prunes danced in her head. Before traveling to spend the Holidays with their families, Dorothy, Blanche, and Rose participate in a golden gift exchange full of hilarious surprises. Just as they get to the airport a winter storm blows in, leaving them trapped! In an unexpected Charles Dickens twist of events, the three grannies must visit their past, present, and future to save Christmas (and find Sophia)…just in time for turkey lurkey. Lucky audience members may even have a chance to make their stage debut and become the next #TokenSophia!
