WV native Don Stansberry is an elementary school teacher. Mr. Stansberry will discuss his latest book, Inky & the Missing Gold, which has a suggested reading level of grade 4 & up. The book tells the tale of a very small wizard named Inkydomus who lives in the ruins of an abandoned castle. After nearly a hundred years of hiding, he finds someone is searching for him. Inky & the Missing Gold is excellent reading for the middle school to high school set. Medieval fiction at it’s best, Don Stansberry captures not only castle life but includes historical information like the Knights of the Templar. The book is the first in a series.
Mr. Stansberry’s appearance is part 2 of a two week joint summer program brought to you by the library’s adult and children’s programming departments. All ages are welcome.
Don Stansberry has been in the public school system since 1984 and has always had an interest in writing. He was the head coach for the Parkersburg High Girls’ Basketball team for 16 years and retired from that position with four state championships. He is currently working on his next novel, Inky, Oglebee, and the Witches, due for release Fall 2008.
