Until October 28, the Nice City Library network is honoring the children’s literature author Susie Morgenstern. With her world-renowned fame, the Nice-based author has made a significant mark in the literary world with her rich and dense career.

She will be presented with the award by Roger Brieu, Officer and Knight of the Legion of Honor, holder of the military medal, seven military values, and a former air force officer. Also present will be Jean-Luc Gagliono, Deputy Mayor in charge of Education, Culture in schools, Books, Fight against illiteracy, Nice Identity, and Leisure for all.
