Theodore’s Books is excited to host music educator & author, Lindsey Williams, for her new memoir, Where the Valley Widens!
In Where the Valley Widens, Lindsey Williams explores classroom life and the daunting realities that both students and teachers face in our schools. Young and idealistic, Mrs. Williams begins her journey in a rural elementary school as the newly hired band director. While navigating everyday obstacles, she witnesses the devastation to a community's heart and home when a catastrophic flood destroys her school's interconnected ecosystem-along with nearly all of her progress with the fledgling music program. It's perfect for book clubs, teacher preparation programs, and new teacher mentorship groups. Discuss one of its forty chapters each week of your school year and reach summer inspired instead of tired.
Tickets are free for this event, and registration is required!
Join us at Theodore’s Books, in partnership with the Syosset Public Library & Turn the Page Podcast for a fantastic event with NYT bestselling author, Ellen Marie Wiseman, for her new book, The Lies They Told!
Known for writing novels based on real historical events, Ellen Marie Wiseman is often praised for the compassion, depth, and prescience with which she explores often forgotten yet shockingly timely episodes from the not-too-distant past. Now, in her seventh novel, The Lies They Told, she turns to America’s dark history with eugenics in the early decades of the 20th century with the story of a young immigrant mother who survives near-starvation in post-WWI Germany to fight for her daughter, her dignity, and her life in 1930s America.
