Bellon Visiting Author in March

Our community has an annual tradition of hosting a notable children’s book author. A committee made up of local teachers, librarians, and university professors called the ISU Bellon Visiting Author Book Series has been the driving force behind bringing a variety of exciting and culturally rich children’s authors, storytellers, and illustrators to schools and our community at large.

With great pleasure, the Bellon Visiting Author Series announces Roseanne Greenfield Thong, guest author for 2016. She is the author of many multicultural-themed children’s books. She has lived and taught in Guatemala, Mexico, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. At present she lives in Fountain Valley, California, in between her visits to Hong Kong. She will be in Pocatello March  7- 9 and will visit schools and connect with our community at several free events listed below.

Please find time in your schedule to attend one of her performances. It will be well worth the effort to meet and listen to this most interesting author!

• Monday, March 7  at Marshall Public Library, 113 S. Garfield Ave. at 4 p.m.
• Tuesday, March 8 at ISU College of Education Auditorium, 921 S. 8th Ave at 7 p.m. with a book signing at 6:30 p.m.
