Acclaimed Children's Author Coming Next Month

The Lake Champlain Waldorf School is hosting a visit from William Alexander, best-selling children's fantasy author of /Goblin Secrets/ and /Ghoulish Songs/. On Monday, November 4 from 7-9 p.m. at 359 Turtle Lane, Shelburne, Alexander will deliver an adult-oriented public lecture on the power of fantasy to create personal and social change. Don’t miss this glimpse into a writer’s vision of how imagination can and does change the world. The lecture is $5 at the door.

You can also meet Alexander on Saturday, November 2, when the Flying Pig Bookstore is hosting a book reading and signing by Alexander at Shelburne Town Hall at 4:00 p.m. This is the only place to get a signed copy of Alexander’s book! RSVP for this event by calling 802-985-3999 or emailing flyingpigevents@gmail.com

Alexander is the winner of the 2013 National Book Award for Young People’s Literature and a Waldorf alumnus. He is a young and highly acclaimed middle-grades writer in the steampunk genre, with some Vermont roots: Alexander earned his English Master's degree at UVM before turning to writing full-time.
