Meet Bill Nye at LIC Book Signing Next Week

April 27, 2018 By Nathaly Pesantez

Bill Nye, the acclaimed science educator and television host, will be in Long Island City next week for a book signing.

The signing will take place on May 2 at Book Culture LIC, located at 26-09 Jackson Ave., from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Nye will sign copies of “Lost in the Jungle”, a children’s book he co-authored with Gregory Mone, a novelist.

The book follows a young boy and his siblings trying to locate a missing inventor, finding scientific clues along the way. It is the third and final book in the “Jack and the Geniuses” series.

The book features a glossary of terms and an experiment kids can do at home or at school.

Tickets for the event cost $13.99, and includes one hardcover copy of a Jack and the Geniuses book of your choice. The authors will sign up to three books per person only—no personalizations, memorabilia, and the like, according to Book Culture LIC. No photos will be allowed with the authors.
