Our class got to listen to Eric Wilson talk about his books today. He
inspired us to travel across Canada and write about our great country.
He also revealed his secret to finally becoming a published
author....make an idea web before you write your story! Our library is
well-supplied with Eric Wilson's mystery books and they are very
popular! Here's a sample of what our class learned from Eric.
