Author and educator, Jerdine
Nolen says, “I
can’t remember a time when I wasn’t writing. My mother says she thinks I was
born with a pencil in my hand. Ideas seem to be around me all the time. My ideas
come from reading, writing, and living day-to-day in the world – then I follow
where they lead!”
Come join us as ALA Notable Book Award winner,
Ms. Nolen shares her love of reading and writing with us through slides and book
sharing.
