Davidā€™s Stories with NEK Author David Martin

March 12, 2025 | 6:00 PM

Children's book author David Martin of Lyndon has just released a collection of five non-fiction stories for grown ups. In David's Stories he's written about real things that happened in Vermont, and one piece about his travels to Africa. David’s Stories features humor in the hills, mystery, and armchair travel.

“Unlike my picture books for young children, David’s Stories is a collection of true stories. Some are funny - like why would some people want to beat us after they stole our truck - and some - like my encounter with a fisher cat, are just magical and mysterious.”

Please come to the Athenaeum on Wednesday, March 12 at 6 pm for a reading along with an extra added something. Books will be for sale and there will be refreshments. This event is free, ADA accessible, and open to the public.

Location: St. Johnsbury Athenaeum, 1171 Main Street, St. Johnsbury, VT
