Author Elizabeth Winthrop will discuss how she became a writer and how children can develop their own writing talent. "I always tell the kids that by the time you are twelve years old, you'll have all the memories you need to write a hundred books," she says.
Elizabeth Winthrop is the author of
The Castle in the Attic,
Island Justice and more than fifty other books for children and adults. She hails from a family of writers including Theodore Roosevelt and his cousin Franklin, the subject of her novel in progress,
Dear Mr. President.
