 Attica
Author to Sign Copies of Her
Third Book at the Attica Public Library
The Attica Public Library
invites you to attend Chris Woodworths' book signing on Thursday, May 15th
from 5-7 PM. Come in to get your early copy of her new chapter book for
children ages 10-14, “Double Click For Trouble”. The book published by Farrar,
Straus & Giroux, will not be officially released until May 27.
Her newest book is the
story of 13 year old Eddie McCall. Eddie has always been a good kid. He does
his homework, picks up around the house, and cooks dinner for his single mom
when she has to work late at a Chicago hotel. Then Eddie’s best friend, Whip,
shows him an inappropriate print-out from the Internet and suddenly Eddie can’t
seem to think about anything else. When his mom learns of the sites he has been
visiting, she ships him off to her hometown of Sheldon, Indiana, to live with
his great-uncle Peavey for an entire month. Peavey isn’t exactly the father
figure Eddie has been looking for. He spits tobacco juice into a can, calls a
toilet a “commode”, and certainly doesn’t own a computer.
As it turns out, however,
both Peavey McCall and Sheldon, Indiana, hold some very surprising secrets…
Chris captures two worlds
in this tender and funny look at a boy learning what it really means to be a
man.
Kirkus Review had this to
say about the book, “Woodworth leavens her simply written story with well-drawn
characters and quiet wisdom, making this a good choice for discussion groups.
Parents, too, might learn from Eddie’s single mother and her determination to
assert parental control over her son’s use of the Internet.”
Chris’ books will sell for
$16.00. Chris is donating the profits from the sale to the library.
Chris is the author of two
other chapter books for grades 4-7, “When Ratboy Lived Next Door” and “Georgie’s
Moon”.
The library will not be
selling copies of the book after the evening of the book signing. Please call
the Attica Public Library at 764-4194 if you have any questions.
