Author Talk with Douglas Wood

Join us in welcoming author Douglas Wood in discussing his latest release, A Wild Path– a soul-satisfying journey through the wilderness that uncovers hope, healing, and the abiding grace of wild things.

Book signing to follow.

With the generosity and compassion of a good wilderness guide, Douglas Wood welcomes readers to accompany him as he navigates his life-path from struggling student and “worst reader in the class” to prolific writer and best-selling author. He offers courage and hope to those who feel different or left behind, and he shares how he found, through the counsel of rocks, trees, and waters, his own way toward joy and wonder and an unshakable sense of belonging.

Douglas Wood is an author, artist, musician, educator, wilderness guide, and creator of thirty-nine books for children and adults, including Deep Woods, Wild Waters (Minnesota, 2017). His first book, Old Turtle, was hailed an “instant classic.” His other works, including the New York Times bestseller Grandad’s Prayers of the Earth and his humorous Can’t Do series, have received the American Booksellers Book of the Year Award, the Christopher Medal, Parents’ Choice Award, International Reading Association Book of the Year Award, Smithsonian Notable Books for Children Award, Storytelling World Award, and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Minnesota Association for Environmental Education. He lives with his family in a log cabin on the Mississippi River in Minnesota.

Event is free, open to the public, and mobility aid accessible.
