MACHO NO MACHISMO BOOK READING WITH REAL WRESTLERS!

January 25 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

Join bilingual children’s book author Miguel Briones for a morning of Lucha Libre Literacy at Book People located at 603 N. Lamar in downtown Austin. Celebrate the release of the highly anticipated follow up to the bilingual lucha libre themed book Macho No Machismo.

Macho Manuel is back and ready to teach young people and families what it really means to be Macho, as Miguel reads from both Macho No Machismo 1 and 2! You don’t want to miss this bilingual theatrical and musical author reading that many have called “The best author visit I’ve ever experienced!”

And as if that wasn’t enough, there will also be a live Q&A with real life Lucha Libre Wrestlers! That’s right, professional wrestlers Jazmin Allure and Insane will be there to meet fans and to take pictures.

So join us on January 25th at 10:30 am. Get your copy of Macho No Machismo: Helpful and Nice / Ayudador y Agradable and have it signed by the author, then get in line to meet and take a picture with Jazmin and Insane!
