Featuring a local fourth grader, Dava Kielb, who will be one of several local authors who will share their inspiration for writing. Dava’s story entitled A Night at the Old Grist Mill Museum was inspired after a visit to East Rockaway’s Grist Mill Museum two years ago when she was a second grade student at Rhame Avenue School. Her story began as an assignment following a class trip. Come hear her story as well as the other authors!
