Creating new authors

Nine-year-old Abigail likes to write fairytales. She uses her three brothers, three sisters and parents as the main characters. One day, she says she might write a book about her own life. That creativity stems in part from a love of reading, which her parents have always promoted. After recently winning a Judy Moody reading contest at the Heritage Library, she went on to compete at the Williamsburg Regional Library. She loved the larger library so much that her mother says, “I had to beg her to leave!”
