Something to do on March 14


Book Signing and Reading with national author Margie Carroll Date: March 14, 2013 Time: 1:00 PM Location Madrona Hills Ace Hardware Open to the General Public
Margie Carroll, a former educator, who after retiring, turned her talents to writing children’s nature books. Her photography is stunning and Margie’s work has been in art galleries throughout the south and southwest. She is a regularly featured author and photographer for “Mountain Life Magazine”.
The stories are told through the eyes of a young animal and there is always a resolution to the problem or situation at hand. These animals are captured on film in their natural settings and it often takes more than a year to photograph the story.
Margie will sign her books and do three readings during the course of her afternoon at Madrona Hills Ace. At the end of each reading, there will be a drawing for that book. Between readings, she will autograph her books.
Margie will be joined by the wild birds of Turtle Ridge Wild Life Center. These educational birds will fly in the store, a breath taking experience. Participants will also have a chance to make a wish on real baby ducks by tossing a coin in their pond. All the coins go to support the babies of Turtle Ridge Wild Life Center
