Writers Discuss Reading Freedom
Join the League of Utah Writers and Let Utah Read for a discussion about the banned books that changed our lives. This event is free and open to the public.
SPECIAL GUEST: Christian McKay Heidicker is the author of the Newbery Honor-winning Scary Stories for Young Foxes, its non-Newbery-winning companion The City, and the Thieves of Weirdwood trilogy. He also spent years working in education, developing instructional comic books for a non-profit, and teaching creative writing at Broadview University, and writing science and history articles for 4th-12th graders at Bird Brain Science, hoping to make young students giggle and gasp their way through what otherwise might feel like difficult subjects.
