A microphone graphic with text that reads "Virtual Author Visits."

Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) is excited to bring you Virtual Author Visits in partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium. Join us and hear from bestselling authors and thought leaders on a range of topics, from puzzling science to epic fantasy to decluttering your home. Whether you are an avid or occasional reader, there is nothing quite like listening to insightful talks by authors you have read or new ones you are just discovering. You never know what will catch your interest. Attend these events at no cost from the comfort of home. 

In November, join us on Thu., Nov. 7 at 5 p.m. for a discussion with Navajo Ranger Stanley Milford, Jr. as he chats about the chilling and clear-eyed memoir of his investigations into bizarre cases of the paranormal and the unexplained in Navajoland. In The Paranormal Ranger, Milford recounts the stories of these cases from a law enforcement officer’s clinical and deductive perspective. Register for the access link

Next, tune in on Sat., Nov. 9 at noon (en Español) or Thu., Nov. 14 at 2 p.m. (English) to hear from New York Times bestselling author Javier Zamora as he chats with us about his riveting tale of survival and perseverance as told in his award-winning memoir Solito. The book provides an immediate and intimate account of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, as well as the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Register for the access link (above). 

For the last Virtual Author Visit in November, you’re invited to join us on Wed., Nov. 20 at 5 p.m. as Mona Susan Power chats about her newest novel, A Council of Dolls. This conversation highlights how her work explores Native Rights and Native American culture, using an important symbol that anchors comfort and companionship in Native life: dolls. Mona Susan Power weaves a spell of love and healing that comes alive on the page. Register for the access link

Homeschoolers, get ready to tell the world about your favorite book! Prepare a creative book report at home and present it informally to other families in a science fair-style format. What you create to represent your book is up to you. Build a diorama, design a game based on the plot and characters, or make a poster for the movie version. Or you might create a book in a bag project, make a clothes hanger mobile, or draw the story in a comic book format. The possibilities are endless! For homeschool students in grades K – 8. 

Registration opens on Fri., Nov. 8 at 10 a.m. Register here to be a book presenter. Please make sure that each participating student registers separately.

If you aren’t ready to present a book report yourself, drop by to support other homeschoolers by browsing the projects and discover your next favorite book!

When: Fri., Dec. 13 from 1 - 2 p.m.
Where: East Library
