Book Talk: Mercedes Cecilia, Author and Illustrator

Author & illustrator Mercedes Cecilia will be on hand to read from, discuss and sign her new children's book, Kusikiy: A Child from Taquile, Peru (Keepers of Wisdom and Peace Books). Mercedes has created a myth following in the tradition of her Peruvian ancestors; a myth that treasures the universal values of love, family, community, and caring for Mother Earth. This is a special story that allows children to identify with a child from a foreign land, enhancing their understanding and empathy, which will extend to the significant groups in their community and the wider world. The author is an American citizen, born in Peru, who has made Woodstock her home since 1986.
