Canadian poet and author, Jordan Scott, will read his children’s book I Talk Like a River.
This beautiful personal story describes Scott’s own experience with a stutter as a child, and his acceptance of it by “talking like a river”, since a river is never on a smooth path, but whips, whirls and crashes.
- Readings in English (10:30am, 1pm)
- Readings in French (11am, 1:30pm)
