Village Library Hosts Author Day BY FRANCINE FULTON

nternational Children’s Book Day (ICBD), which is designed to promote reading and spotlight children’s books, is observed annually on or around author Hans Christian Andersen’s birthday on April 2.

Locally, the Village Library of Morgantown celebrated ICBD with an Author Day on April 2 featuring children’s author Lauren Nappi and mystery author Lisa Betz, both of whom are members of the library’s board of trustees. Betz serves as board president. Nappi’s book, “A Peanut’s Tale: A

Duckling’s Journey on Children’s Lake,” is based on a true story as told to her by her mother, Terri Elliott, who is the book’s illustrator. “It’s about a duckling who wanders away to Children’s Lake and meets two friends,” Nappi said, noting that the lesson of the story is about the rewards of helping others and

the importance of family. Children’s Lake is an actual lake in Boiling Springs in southcentral Pennsylvania; Nappi grew up feeding the ducks and swans on the lake. The book is illustrated with landmarks from the community. To learn more, visit www.apeanuts tale.com/childrenslake.html. See Author Day pg 6
