Betsy Stern, Children's Musician - Rhythms of the World Concert Tuesday, August 5 at 2:00 pm. Betsy Stern is a native of Berkeley, California, and grew up performing

A Tried and True Gluten/Casein/Soy Free Cookbook Local Author - Margie Reichwald Tuesday, August 5 at 10:30 am & 6:30 pm will talk about her son's autism and a cookbook she has written. In November of 2007 my son, Adam, was diagnosed with Autism. The moment when the Doctor said the words "Autism" I instantly broke into tears. My world had shut down for a moment. I had to get a grip...and I knew it. Adam was still Adam. So....that is what I did. I pulled Adam out by changing his diet. I removed all gluten, casein(dairy) and soy from Adam's diet. Not only did Adam's behavior change, so did his overall health. The link between what our children put in their bellies and Autism is astounding. This is when I decided to share Adam's story with other families who are going through what my husband and I went through. I wrote a Gluten/Casein/Soy Free cookbook from a mom's standpoint. I want to show families that it can be easy…and they don't need to re-invent the wheel. I'm not a gourmet cook, I'm not an author…I'm just a mom that was told my son has Autism. Author Kelly Jones will visit Monday, August 11 at 2:30 pm to talk about and sign her new mystery chapter book - Notorious Nora. Nora loves a good mystery-particularly when she can solve it.

Click Here to view a video message from Chistopher Paolini NEW TITLE FOR "ONE BOOK, ONE COMMUNITY" READ Set in NM on the border between a small village and the huge llano (plains), Bless Me, Ultima is Rudolfo Anaya's much acclaimed and award-winning coming-of-age novel from the Hispanic perspective. Antonio is torn between his father's cowboy side of the family who ride on the llano and his mother's village and farming relations. Many conflicts are presented here: Hispanic vs. American culture, Catholicism vs. paganism, parents' expectations vs. the child's desires, Spanish blood vs. native blood. Antonio's life is forever altered when his aunt Ultima, a curandera (healer) comes to live with the family; she teaches Antonio many things, most importantly how to gather the self-knowledge that will help carry him into adulthood.
