Ann E. Burg Book Signing at Well Read Books in Hawthorne

Ann E. Burg, a Jefferson Cup award winner, will be coming to Well Read Books for a signing and meet and greet after her visit to GR middle school on January 29th. This event is FREE and open to the general public. Ann E. Burg is the author of several wonderful novels, including "Serafina's Promise" about a little girl with a secret dream. She wants to go to school and become a doctor with her best friend, Julie Marie. But in their rural village outside Port-au-Prince, Haiti, many obstacles stand in Serafina's way. 

"Since earliest childhood, my world has been words ~ poems recited or sung by my mother, books brought back from the Brooklyn Library, the jumble of black marks on the newspaper my father read. I have always loved the way words sounded when they were bundled together or how they could say one thing and mean another. My Heart is on Fire I heard, and wondered that so few words could capture so large a feeling." - Ann E. Burg
