The Library & Learning Commons is excited to announce the appearance of New York Times best-selling author, Michael Buckley on Wednesday, May 6 at 2:05pm in The Great Hall.
With experience writing for television and over 15 published titles to his name, Buckley is best known for The Sisters Grimm, a series of nine novels that showcase two sisters unearthing mysteries, encountering nemeses, and evading danger as they encounter many famed fairytale characters wandering around Everafter, a fictitious town set in New York State.
While visiting Annie Wright Schools, Michael Buckley will visit with our Middle and Upper School students to talk about the life of a writer and answer student questions.
He will also promote his May release of Undertow, the first book in a blockbuster trilogy about Lyric Walker, a high school girl who finds herself in the heart of a military zone, as Coney Island erupts in violent conflict over the appearance of The Alpha, a band of sea monsters who have taken residence upon its shores.
For a preview of Undertow, check out the following book trailer to see why Undertow will be one of the best beach reads of the summer:
