I'm Thankful For All of Your Children

I'm writing to let you all know how thankful I am to work with all of your children each day. I'm lucky to say that I like my job and enjoy learning alongside your kids every day. I hope everyone has a restful and happy Thanksgiving.

John

Katherine Paterson on Saturday, Nov. 18

The Flying Pig is delighted to welcome  the legendary author Katherine Paterson to Shelburne Town Hall on Saturday, Nov. 18 at 1 pm. (Please note this is a time and venue change.)

Katherine Paterson's latest book, My Brigadista Year, follows a 13-year-old Cuban girl as she volunteers for Fidel Castro's national literacy campaign and travels into the impoverished countryside to teach rural families how to read.

Paterson is the award-winning author of many beloved books for young people, including Bridge to Terabithia and Lyddie. 

There will be a brief reading and Q & A with Paterson, followed by a signing. The Flying Pig will have the full slate of her books on hand for autographing.
