Mentone Public
Library proudly presents … a new book about to take flight. Meet author and
story-teller… Jackie Kerin
All
my stories begin as spoken or told stories. For me, the story is connected to
the book, like blossom to fruit.
Jackie will talk
about how her tale of the first lyrebird, filmed and recorded in display, began
as a spoken word piece and evolved into a book for reading. She also wrestles
with the desire to share, through story, her passion and concern for the
fragility and precious nature of the natural environment without being didactic.
Lyrebird! A True Story. 'Well heavens to betsy! You're no ordinary chook!'
