Author Stacy McAnulty Visits Henry Puffer
Stacy McAnulty came and spoke to students in grades 3-6 about her new book, The World Ends in April. She is also the author of The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl, which was released last year. As she explained to students, she started her career as a mechanical engineer before she started to write books full time! As a result, most of the 20 books she has written, which are mostly non-fiction, cover a variety of scientific topics... such as being struck by lightning or what do to do prepare for the end of the world!
