Aaron Reynolds, an author who has written more than 50 children’s books, speaks to the youngest students at Coosa Elementary School on Wednesday, March 29 on Lady’s Island. Reynolds, whose body of work includes books such as “Creepy Carrots” and a series for young readers called “Fart Quest,” visited the school and spoke to all of the students about what it is like to be an author and encouraged them all to follow their dreams when choosing a career. “We like to try and bring in one author a year to speak to the kids,” Coosa Principal Melissa Pender said. “(Reynolds) was so great, we are so happy we got him to come. We are already looking for next year’s author.” Delayna Earley/The Island News
