Unmask Alice is a true story of contagious deception. It’s the story of a doomed romance and a vengeful celebrity. Of a lazy press and a public mob. Of two suicidal teenagers, and their exploitation by a literary vampire.
Add a thought or doodle to our window mural in the Atrium at the Aalfs Downtown Library. Inspired by this year's Sioux City Reads selection, Unmask Alice by Rick Emerson, the book reveals that Go Ask Alice, a sensationalized diary chronicling a teenage girl's struggle with drug addiction, was, in fact, a fabrication.
Featuring a very special appearance by The Cat in the Hat. Create a Seuss-tastical craft after storytime!

It's the story of a Black teenager who is constantly switching between two worlds -- the poor, mostly Black neighborhood where she lives and the wealthy, mostly white prep school that she attends and her struggle to find her voice and stand up for what is right.
