This event is taking place exclusively in French.
Come by the Greenboro branch and support local author and last year's Ottawa Book Award winner Emmanuelle Erny! In front of a cozy fireplace, Emmanuelle will present her novel, Charlotte au pays des mots, and her writing process that guided her throughout the writing of her novel. A unique adventure story inspired by a classic children's novel, it's the perfect opportunity to learn more about a local author, understanding the French language better and getting into a new adventure where the protagonist has to find her way around in a world where words and verbs have come to life.
This event is part of our Author series.
