Bring the kids to China Camp for a night of local history, storytelling and fun! Children will learn about the fascinating history of China Camp and hear the fictional story of Yao Bai , a Chinese boy who lived at China Camp during the California Gold Rush when food supplies were in short supply due to demand by the huge numbers of miners. To find food, Yao and his family members sailed out to the Farallons to gather seabird eggs to sell. But there are--and were--pirates about! Join New York Times Bestseller Tim J. Myers' as he reads from his book Yao Bai and the Egg Pirates. Tim will read his book, then tell a Chinese folktale, and end with a Q&A.
