Saturday, July 6, 1:00 p.m.

Event Center, Abbot Public Library

 

Award-winning author Carolyn Mackler has written popular novels for elementary school children, teenagers, and — most recently — adults. Take a seat at this fun session and hear her discuss what inspires her, how she does her research, and how she decides to write a novel about someone who is 14 . . .or 40. Carolyn will share with us what drove her to produce her first novel at 25, and what propels her to keep telling stories 25 years later!
