Story Time and Nature Demo with Heather Montgomery
Advertisement
We are thrilled to welcome back one of our favorite local authors and environmental educator extraordinaire, Heather Montgomery, for a fun morning of nature-themed stories and exploratory activities.
Demos and discussions with Heather will take place both inside and outside the store, with a story time in our reading area about midway through the event. Come for just a bit or come and stay the whole time.
*Children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of this event.
**Recommended ages 3 and up
ABOUT THE AUTHOR (IN HER OWN WORDS)
"My interest in nature led to a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Environmental Education. For years I developed curriculum and directed the McDowell Environmental Center. Later, I taught in the classroom, directed summer camps, and finally discovered writing! I've published 18 books for young people and owe much of my publishing knowledge to the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, particularly the Southern Breeze Region.
One of my favorite things is to stand knee-deep in a stream and catch bugs with kids. I still do that, occasionally, when I'm not writing, speaking to students or leading teacher workshops. I live in beautiful Alabama with my husband, four cats and a forest full of wildlife. During my free time, I climb trees, collect fossils, stand under waterfalls, nature journal, explore the Sipsey Wilderness or lay in a hammock and read a good book!"
