Meet Middle Reader Author Lizzie Foley at Watchung Booksellers Saturday

Author Lizzie Foley, will be at Watchung Booksellers in Montclair on Saturday, April 14 from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. to sign copies of her debut novel Remarkable just published by Penguin.

The event is a wonderful opportunity for readers aged 9 to 11 to meet a new author.

Fans describe the book as a wonderfully whimsical debut that proves ordinary people can do extraordinary things.

"In the mountain town of Remarkable, everyone is extraordinarily talented, extraordinarily gifted, or just plain extraordinary. Everyone, that is, except Jane Doe, the most average ten-year-old who ever lived. But everything changes when the mischievous, downright criminal Grimlet twins enroll in Jane's school and a strange pirate captain appears in town.

Thus begins a series of adventures that put some of Remarkable's most infamous inhabitants and their long-held secrets in danger. It's up to Jane, in her own modest style, to come to the rescue and prove that she is capable of some rather exceptional things.

With a page-turning mystery and larger-than-life cast of characters, Lizzie K. Foley's debut is nothing short of remarkable."
