ST. JOHNSBURY – Children’s book author David Martin of Lyndon (“Peep and Ducky”) has 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. He will discuss the book Wednesday, March 12, 6 p.m. at the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum.
“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,” he says.
Books will be for sale and there will be refreshments. This event is free, ADA accessible, and open to the public. The Anthenaeum is located at 1171 Main St. For more information, see
