Tsawwassen children's author Darlene Foster will be launching Amanda in Alberta -The Writing on the Stone, her fourth book in the popular children's travel-adventure series, later this month.
International traveller, 12-year-old Amanda Ross stays at home where she is delighted to show her friend Leah around Alberta during her visit from England. They take in the Calgary Stampede, go on a cattle drive, visit Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, spend
time with the dinosaurs at the Royal Tyrrell Museum and explore the crazy hoodoos.
When Amanda finds a stone with a unique mark on it, she doesn't think it's important until everyone seems to want it, including a very ornery cowboy. Is this stone worth ruining Leah's holiday and placing them both in danger?
The launch of Amanda in Alberta -The Writing on the Stone will be held at Albany Books in Tsawwassen on Saturday, July 26 from 1 to
3 p.m. The author will be reading from the novel and signing copies of all of her books.
The Amanda travel adventure books are published by Central Avenue Publishing, a local publishing house.
