Local author, Lenora Riegel, writes books that weave the Finger Lakes region into the story.  Aww, Fishsticks was Lenora’s debut. What began as her search for living a lifelong dream turned into a children’s book. After 35 years in engineering, she spends her time writing and drawing.  Her stories exemplify coping skills, mindfulness, authenticity, bravery, and growth mindset.  She writes both picture books and mid-grade novels.

Stop by 275 Main Street, Owego on 5/20/23 at 2pm.  Meet Lenora, learn more about her lovely children’s stories, support a local author, check out a book, and read!  So far, three of Lenora’s books are available at the Coburn Free Library:  Aww, Fishsticks, Slipperima, and Pepper the Salt Potato.  We hope to add more soon.

Lenora’s books are also available at the Confection Connection in Owego.  We hope to see you on Saturday, May 20th!
