Worlds of Words combined Reading Ambassadors invite you to their end of the year party and to meet Megan E. Freeman, author of Alone and Away.

Alone is the story of 12-year-old Maddie, whose scheme for a secret sleepover with her two best friends goes awry, and she ends up waking up to a nightmare. She’s utterly alone — left behind in a town that has been mysteriously evacuated and abandoned. The story continues in the sequel, Away.
Megan E. Freeman attended an elementary school where poets visited her classroom every week to teach poetry, and she has been a writer ever since. She is a best-selling, award-winning author and poet. Freeman is also a National Writing Project teacher with decades of classroom experience and nationally recognized for presenting workshops and speaking to audiences across the country.
Attendees are welcome to stay after the event for a second presentation by Freeman.
Ticketed parking is available in the Second St. Garage and metered parking is available on the street/surface level through the Passport Mobile Parking app. Worlds of Words Center is also located just off of the 2nd St. Modern Streetcar stop.
