Twisted Loyalties: What Would You Do?

Best for those in upper elementary grades and up.

We are so excited and honored to have local author Anne Blankman join us this summer! She will present the majority of this interactive program, which is based on her book The Enemy's Daughter. Participants' views will be challenged as they learn some details about World War I and meet the book's young characters. This event also allows attendees to create one craft near the end of the program and take another activity home with them. Light refreshments will be provided by Friends of the Goochland Library.

Anne Blankman is an award-winning children's author. Her work has earned many accolades, including the National Jewish Book Award, the California Young Reader Medal, a Sydney Taylor Honor, an ALA Notable, multiple starred reviews, and Italy's Amo Questo Libro Book Award. For several years, she served as a youth services librarian, but now she writes full-time. Anne's most recent book, The Enemy's Daughter, tells the story of a German girl stranded after her ship is attacked during World War One. Anne loves hearing from readers, and you may visit her online at www.anneblankman.com.
