Join two-time author Linda Petrat as she discusses her unusual and exciting life in this fast-paced and fun program. Taking its cue from Linda’s award-winning first book, A Great Big Adventure on a Good Little Boat, Linda’s follow-up book, From Stem to Stern: A True Life Adventure fills in the blanks: When she was a young teen, Linda’s parents purchased a sailing schooner, uprooted their seven children from stateside normalcy, and took off for parts unknown, which, in Linda’s case, turned out to be the Bahamas. Adventures—of the most varied and surprising sort—followed.
Linda’s books have captivated readers all over America, and she will share her joys and challenges in this riveting Local Author Series lecture for Women’s History Month.
