About this Event

ABOUT THE EVENT

North Carolina author Kimberly Wilson joins us for Saturday Morning Storytime! Books will be available for purchase at the reading.


ABOUT THE BOOK

In 2013, the icy arctic winter arrived late to Northern Canada, and the Hudson Bay's surface froze overnight. A pod of eleven orcas, fooled by the warmer waters, were swimming near the small fishing village of Inukjuak and became trapped by the icy conditions, quickly making their struggle to survive international news. For three long days, the world followed along, as the pod searched for a way out and the desperate villagers exhausted every resource to help them. Would the orcas make it out alive?


ABOUT THE AUTHOR

KIMBERLY WILSON is the author of A Penny's Worth, A Dollar's Grand Dream, A Credit Card Takes Charge, and Piggy Bank Saves the Day. As a full-time writer, she loves sprinkling educational facts, wordplay, and heart into her stories. When she is not writing, she enjoys visiting schools, volunteering with local literacy nonprofits, browsing the shelves of her favorite bookstores, and taking long idea-inspiring walks with her dog.
