Join Emma Rea, the author of My Name is River, for an environmental themed Library Adventures Live! event.
Emma will be reading from My Name is River, a story about friendship, home, wilderness, poverty and always trying to find a way forward. She’ll be inviting children to get creative, in a session that will entertain and educate in equal measure.
Book review:
“Wow! What a book! It’s riveting, it’s moving, it’s topical, it’s superb! … superb writing, brilliant characters, a glorious adventure and the warmest of heart. Amazing!" Malachy Doyle
“This book has it all – friendship and family; adventure, peril and humour; the environment and a fantastic setting; power, class and poverty; other countries, cultures and ways of life… ” Waterstones
Emma has had all sorts of jobs: book reviewer, journalist, salesperson of cardboard boxes, temporary secretary, but the most fun was being a tractor driver for two summers and spending all day in the fields.
