PhotoOur guide to cultural events in New York City for children and teenagers happening this weekend and in the week ahead. 212-348-1400, worldsciencefestival.com/cityofscienceJUNOT DÍAZ PRESENTS ‘ISLANDBORN’ at the Central Library of the Brooklyn Public Library (March 13, 6-8 p.m.). A fresh work by Mr. Díaz, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author, is always an occasion, but this one is especially remarkable for its potential to bring him a whole new generation of fans. It chronicles the experiences of Lola, a little New Yorker who, like Mr. Díaz, was born in the Dominican Republic. Organized by the library and Greenlight Bookstore, this celebration will feature children’s coloring and crafts as well as a reading and book signing by Mr. Díaz.
