With August beginning next week, it seems like an appropriate time to clean out or restock your ‘Go Bag’ with the essentials for vacation; a day at the beach, mountains, lake, Wedgewood, or Springs Brook Park; or an afternoon spent in a hammock in your backyard. Do you have everything you need? You likely have sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, flip-flops, a water bottle, and a snack but do you have a book from one of Bedford’s many talented authors?
Bedford is fortunate to be home to an amazing number of authors who cover a wide range of topics and interests including mystery, poetry, creative arts, and titles for children.
Here are five authors who have each had books published within the last year:
- Barbara Feehrer – Lake Lessons: Reflections
- Todd Nichols – Peas and Hambone Save Us All
- Barbara Purchia – Contemporary Sand Sculpture
- Jim Petipas – The Cows Go Moo!
- Sherry Harris – I Know What You Bid Last Summer
The Citizen’s Summer Reading Week will feature one author’s work each day from July 30 through August 3.
