Author Visit: Zoe Greenberg (HGR)

For Grades 4 - 8

Calling all aspiring young writers to hear from and meet Zoe!

Hello! My name is Zoe Greenberg, I’m seventeen (a rising senior, thank goodness– junior year is rough),

and the author of the newly published fantasy book, Vie and the Bear Under the Tree! Vie follows the story of a

young girl– Lucia– who finds a tunnel to an alternate spirit-dimension. This newly-discovered realm is host to an

armada of odd creatures– talking hares, women with three eyes, sentient trees, fairy-people– and also a dark secret:

a spirit, necessary for their survival, was stolen in infancy by a cult who means to prey on the realm and take control

of all those who live within it. Lucia’s job, now, is to find this lost spirit, and stop the cult in the process. I began writing

Vie in middle school and, after four years, finished it at the end of my junior year! I sincerely hope that, assuming you

read Vie (which of course you’re very compelled to do after coming across this ground-breaking ad), you thoroughly enjoy it!

To register please call Children’s at 516-621-2240 ext. 7 OR email us at kids@bryantlibrary.org!

The first 10 registrants will receive a copy of the book and have it signed by the author!

The Whaling Museum Presents: Feast or Famine - Food Abroad a Whaleship (ONLINE)

Pickled, salted, smoked or dried? Dig into the delectable history of food preservation as we learn how whalers kept food fresh for months out at sea. Explore common shipboard recipes as well as some of the more unusual meals sailors would have enjoyed on their travels. We’ll examine supply lists, letters, and diaries to discover which foods were savored and which were scorned by sailors.
