Kathryn Rider and Emerson Ormond
Two young authors will be at the Webster Library on March 9 to talk about their new book, Our Wendy.
Kathryn Rider, a seventh grader at Willink Middle School, and Emerson Ormond, a ninth grader at Webster Schroeder High School, released their first collaborative novel in December. Best friends for pretty much their entire lives, both young ladies have been writing stories since their childhood.
Based loosely on the famous adventures of Peter Pan, Our Wendy tells the story of a runaway boy named Peter, who’s created a new life in the woods with several other “lost boys.” When pretty, bright-eyed Ever Kingsley stumbles into their camp, Peter is determined to keep her by any means possible, and make her their Wendy Darling.
In their talk, scheduled on March 9 from 1 to 2 p.m., Kathryn and Emerson will discuss the challenges they had to overcome while writing the book, and the secrets they used to get it published. They’ll have several copies of the books there for sale (and signing), and all proceeds will be donated to the fight against children’s cancer.
The Webster Library is located in the Webster Plaza, 980 Ridge Road.
