On Friday, Dec. 14, Jennifer Lynn Alvarez, presented her books “Riders of the Realm” and “The Guardian Herd” to the students of St. John the Baptist Catholic School. Everyone was excited to hear her speak about how she became an author and where the ideas for her characters originated. A number of the students felt inspired to write their own story after listening to her presentation. Most significantly, she reminded students how fun and important it is to read.
