The Silver Unicorn Bookstore, Acton, Mass., and Newtonville Books, Newton, Mass., teamed up to host NBA champion and two-time Olympic Gold medal winner (and local author) Jayson Tatum for his new picture book, Baby Dunks-a-Lot: The Day the Basketballs Stopped Bouncing, co-authored by Sam Apple and illustrated by Parker-Nia Gordon (Abrams Books for Young Readers). Tatum was in conversation with author, journalist, and producer Howard Bryant. The sold-out show at the Newton Community Stage was filled with kids who enjoyed seeing their favorite player up close.
