New Children’s Book By Local Actress Julianne Moore

Aside from charming viewers on the big screen, award-winning actress Julianne Moore also has a knack for charming young readers. Inspired by her childhood with her Scottish immigrant mother, the NYC mom of two (and New York Times bestselling author of the Freckleface Strawberry series) is celebrating multi-cultural families with her latest children’s book, My Mom Is a Foreigner, But Not To Me.

The story shows how the traits that make diverse families appear different are precisely the ones that make them so special. Moore’s book features gorgeous illustrations from Meilo So, who is a “foreign” mom herself, not to mention a gifted artist. chroniclebooks.com
