#KGLRC Author connect: brad meltzer reads I am amelia earhart

​This book tells the story of Amelia Earhart from her days as a plucky, curious child to her record-breaking flights. Earhart shattered boundaries and challenged conventional thinking on women’s roles in society and proved that ordinary people could change the world with hard work and determination.
​Brad Meltzer is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inner Circle, The Book of Fate, and ten other bestselling thrillers including The Tenth Justice, The First Counsel, The Millionaires, and The President’s Shadow. His newest thriller, The Escape Artist, debuted at #1 on the bestseller list. His most recent book, The First Conspiracy, is his first non-fiction and is about a secret plot to kill George Washington.

In addition to his fiction, Brad is one of the only authors to ever have books on the bestseller list for Non-Fiction (The First Conspiracy), Advice (Heroes for My Son and Heroes for My Daughter), Children’s Books (I Am Amelia Earhart and I Am Abraham Lincoln) and even comic books (Justice League of America), for which he won the prestigious Eisner Award.

NEW: The crochet-corner

Students have convinced me to start a CROCHET-CORNER in the KG LRC MakerSpace.  If you have any crochet hooks, extra yarn, or large needles (size 16) for plastic canvas crafting -- we will be happy to take them.  Our students are already stepping up and teaching each other this 19th Century craft of crochet. I received a donation of plastic canvas and we will add that craft to the CROCHET-CORNER, too.  Donated items may be sent to school with students or dropped off at Door #2.
Donations welcome:
  • Yarn, Crochet Hooks, Yarn Rug Hooks, Large Sewing Needles (size 16)
