Becky Mushko, award winning author from Penhook will be our guest speaker. Her latest book, “Ferradiddledumday” is the Appalachian version of Ruppelstiltskin. It is written for children, but is a wonderful read for any age. Becky has published five other books, including “Patches on the Same Quilt.” She wrote a humourous advice column called “Peevish Advice” and has published many short stories.
