This is a special event I was asked to participate in. As an author literacy is very important to me and I have participated in several events like this over the years, usually for children. I will be at the Manatee River Garden Club with two other authors, Lucy Tobias and Anne Easter Smith. We each have very different books.

Lucy is an award will author with travel and Florida gardening books and a very special children's book, Mary Margaret Manatee. Mary Margaret is in English and is Spanish which I think is fantastic.

Anne has English history novels which she has diligently researched to bring the reader a fascinating look into the lives of past royals of england.  

Of course there is me with my children's book and my adult suspense novels.

I hope you will support this great cause and buy a ticket, come and enjoy great food, music and maybe win two round trip tickets on Southwest airlines    https://manatee-literacy.org/flavors-of-literacy-2025-food-fun-bradenton/.
