Jennifer A. Nielsen - CVY Read Author


We welcome Jennifer A. Nielsen to Cedar Falls this week for our Cedar Valley's  Youth Read event.  She has a stack of unique books to read and it will be interesting to hear her speak about her process.  She will speak for a public event on Wednesday, April 24th at 6:30 and 5th grade students will travel by school bus to see her during the day. I've spent the last few months reading her book, Rescue, to 5th-grade students. The book transports us back to World War II and a young girl's journey to save her father. 
Jennifer A. Nielsen is one of those rare authors who switch between genres, writing both fantasy and historical fiction. The False Prince is one of my favorite fantasy books and I hope she'll talk a little bit about that as well. I hope our students enjoy the presentation as much as they did last year.
