Attention followers!! Q&C's next stop for our book signing event will be at Ladd Public Library District on Sep. 6 at 11:00 AM. Come meet the author and buy a signed copy of The Storyteller's Guild: The Bag of Secrets or bring a copy ready to be signed.

The Ladd Public Library is hosting a Meet and Greet with Ladd resident and author, Noah Hollinger, on Saturday, September 6th at 11:00am. There is no charge for this program. Please stop by or call the Ladd Public Library at 815-894-3254 to register in advance but walk-ins will be welcome.

Noah recently published the first book (The Bag of Secrets) in his new fantasy series for young readers (The Storyteller's Guild). Whatever your age, anyone seeking a little magic will find it while hearing all about Silas, Esmeree and the Storyteller's Guild. Don't miss out on meeting Noah personally for conversation and book signings after a brief speech.

Copies of his book will be available for sale at the Meet and Greet and can also be purchased on Amazon.com in addition to a copy available for checkout at the Ladd Public Library.

BOOK OVERVIEW:

In this new fantasy novel for early chapter book readers Noah Hollinger invites you to Essila where a person's creativity is their magic.

Silas is a boy from a village that has never known magic. Esmeree is a girl with a storied past from a magical circus. Both lives would never be the same from the moment their paths cross. They are asked to join the legendary Storytellers Guild, which seeks to understand the magic in their words and fight the darkness that would take it away from them. Silas, Esmeree and their new mentor, the bard Phineas, must travel throughout Essila in search of the seeds of creativity that, when planted in the hearts of the many, will cast away the darkness and allow magic to bloom once more in their world.
