The Whangara people believe their ancestor Paikea was saved from drowning by riding home on the back of a whale. The tribal group has since granted leadership positions to the first-born males, believing them to be descendants of Paikea. But then a young mother dies in childbirth along with her newborn male son. His twin sister survives and the little girl, Pai, is brought up by her grandparents. Learning the skills of chiefdom from her uncle, Pai shows that she possess a natural leadership ability. Rated PG-13. Enjoy snacks as we travel this month to New Zealand.

Mystified by the book review process? As a writer, a review of your work can mean the difference between great sales and just a few sales. Join Gary Roen, syndicated book reviewer/writer and literary agent, and learn how you might be blowing yourself out of the publishing picture. Gary will talk about the book review process, what a reviewer does and doesn’t do, how to contact reviewers, what to send, and all the other nagging questions you need the answers to. The talk is sponsored by the Ancient City Chapter of the Florida Writer’s Association and the Main Library, St. Johns County. This program is free and open to the public.
