Roland on Talk of Alaska
Roland appeared on the statewide radio program "Talk of Alaska. Becca Padrick and Benton Campbell from Goldenview met with host Steve Heimel in the Anchorage studio. Here they are with Mr. Heimel and the show's producer and sound guy. Roland called in from Sitka High School where he was joined by librarian Ginny Blackson and SHS's Battle of the Books team. Thanks to the SEER School in Sitka for calling in and to all the other people in the state who participated.

Hello Alaska,
Popular juvenile author Roland Smith was on Talk of Alaska yesterday promoting the "Spirit of Reading" project and talking about his books. It was an outstanding program. You can listen to the streaming audio at www.aprn.org. I'm listening to it as I type...how cool is that!
We so enjoyed hosting Roland at our library on Sunday. He has had such an interesting life as a zookeeper and wild animal biologist before becoming a juvenile author. Really quite extraordinary....and my nine year old took home a pile of books that he really wants to read though they are a tiny bit hard for him....so we are diving into them together.
Hooray for the Sitka librarians who put Roland's tour together!
Cheers,
Charlotte
