Storytime of Girls can be Engineers with Author Jamila H. Lindo
- Date: Saturday, 7 February 2026
- Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
- Location: The Westchester Mall
- Details: Please join the Society of Women Engineers and author, Jamila H. Lindo, on her reading of Girls can be Engineers: Hannah’s Dream Tower. When civil engineer, Jamila H. Lindo, was pursuing her degree, she noticed that she was often the only female or Black female in her classes. When tutoring younger students, they were often confused or surprised as why she chose her field of study. Realizing that there was a lack of exposure and understanding when it came to engineering and other male-dominated fields, Lindo turned to writing her newly released children’s book, Girls Can Be Engineers, as a tool to inspire girls, especially those of color. This storytime is open to all children with parents or guardians present!
