Adults and children filled the Indianapolis Public Library main branch on Thursday to hear actor, writer, and film producer Kirk Cameron read his recently published children s book, As You Grow.
The library organization initially denied Cameron the opportunity to read the book for its story hour but later allowed the event to happen
A video recording shows a long line of people walking into the building, and photos capture families sitting on the floor and standing against the wall.
This was the largest event held at the library in its 137 years of existence, Zac Bell with BRAVE Books, who is with the book publisher, commented. The turnout was phenomenal! We were blown away.
The Cameron book centers around a tree s growth and teaches children about family, faith, and biblical wisdom.
Cameron and his publisher recently criticized libraries that will not allow a public reading of his book but offer drag queen story hours for children.
However, No more will the family of faith be shut out from the public square!
God bless you and Happy New Year, he said.
The author is scheduled to read his book at Scarsdale New York Library today.
