Gayle Forman's Visit to Radnor

Gayle Forman visited our Library on October 15th, 2013. She spoke about the process of writing, specifically how to take an idea and turn it into a well-developed idea for a story. She shared her inspiration for her book, If I Stay, and read aloud from an integral portion of the book. She kindly stayed to sign books through 8th period.

Thank you to Ms. Forman and to Children's Book World in Bryn Mawr for this wonderful experience.

Author Gayle Forman to Visit RHS

We have an amazing opportunity to have Gayle Forman visit Radnor High School on Tuesday, October 15th! She will be in the Black Box during 7th period, and book signing will continue into 8th.

The Young Adult Library Services Association named her book If I Stay to the Teen Top Ten list, as well as Quick Picks for Reluctant Readers and Best Books for Young Adults. Her newest titles are Just One Day and it's sequel, Just One Year. Here is a list of books from her website: http://www.gayleforman.com/books/if-i-stay/ Her visit is in conjunction with Children's Book World in Bryn Mawr, so we will have her books available for sale at a 20% discount.

If I Stay is on the Battle of the Books list for this year. Hope to see you there!
