# Cuéntame! Let’s Talk Books with Gene Luen Yang

What happens when you put two National Ambassadors for Young People’s Literature together? Pure joy and overflowing love for books, of course! Gene Luen Yang (the fifth Ambassador) joined Meg Medina (the eighth Ambassador) at the 2024 National Book Festival to talk books, comic books, art, drawing and the magic of words and stories, particularly those that help us keep going when life gets tough.
