Reading and conversation with David Giuliano, author of
The Alligator in Naomi’s Pillow
It’s the middle of the night and Naomi runs down the hall to her parents’ bedroom screaming, ”
There’s an alligator in her pillow and she needs mom and dad to make it go away. Over a few nights, Naomi’s parents groggily try different approaches to rid Naomi’s pillow of the alligator, but in the end it is Naomi who comes up with a way to face her scary nocturnal visitor.
The book includes a page of “I wonder” questions that adults can use to explore the subject of fear with children (or with themselves).

Reading and conversation with the author of
It’s Good to Be Here: stories we tell about cancer
It’s Good to be Here: Stories we tell about cancer is a courageous and deeply personal book about the author’s more than 20 year journey with cancer. It is part memoir, part spiritual meditation in which Giuliano challenges the ubiquitous and one dimensional “battle with cancer” narrative, with alternative narratives about temples, treasure, light, pilgrimage, wolves and love. It is a fiercely honest, at times funny, book about the metaphysics of medicine and the power of story to heal.
