Come meet author Amy Freidl, author of the Strong Girls Travel middle grade series, to celebrate the release of the newest book in the series, set in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Amy will be at the front of the store for a casual meet-and-greet with families kids age 7-13. We'll even have a craft activity to celebrate National Parks!
Strong Girls Travel is a book series showcasing a young girl's adventures in America's National Parks. Each book finds her learning something new about herself, her world, and her part in it all.
In this sixth book of the series, AJ finds herself in a national park too close to a city for her taste. She travels with her parents to Cuyahoga Valley – complete with neighborhoods scattered about, an interstate running through, and loads of her least favorite subject, history. Where were the big, iconic "national park-worthy" landmarks she was expecting?
But when AJ meets a park ranger who teaches historic tales of beavers, the science of sleeping plants, and the return of a funny-looking fish, she starts to see the park differently. Will AJ tune out the noisy city and enjoy this unique, quiet space? What will she learn about this transformed landscape? Can she do anything to help make this a place that people and animals will love for years to come?
