Every year, the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books becomes livelier and brighter due to the growing number of attendees. From book lovers, casual readers, and literary collectors to authors and publishers, people gathered to celebrate literacy.
The largest book festival in the US opened its doors last April for a glamorous two-day weekend celebration with the bookworms. Held at the University of Southern California, many book enthusiasts, book lovers, and book collectors, as well as writers, established authors, and many more, attended the free event.
A lot of bookfair-goers went by the Citi of Books booth to check for their next read and potential favorite book. One of the books that were chosen is “Where Are You Going?” by Larry B. Bachman. It was displayed on April 20th and 21st at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books at the University of Southern California.
Larry B. Bachman, currently residing in Texas, is passionately dedicated to his writing pursuits. His literary endeavors not only serve his creative expression but also contribute to the noble cause of ministry and service. All proceeds generated from his book are directed towards this altruistic mission.
“Where are you Going?” is a book about dreams, about promises made and broken, and a life lesson for all. The story follows Larry, a young boy who feels like an outsider and is constantly misunderstood. His friends, the Midnight Bike Marauders, get into trouble, and a neighborhood tattletale named Susie makes things worse. Larry is also facing a big baseball game against a rival team.
Throughout these challenges, Larry begins to learn more about God and the Bible. The book uses relatable situations to explore themes of peer pressure, making choices, and dealing with consequences. Larry learns valuable lessons from his parents and grandmother, and the story ultimately shows that God is always there to help.
