Live Reading of Christmas in the Mountain State
Dec
7

Live Reading of Christmas in the Mountain State

Join us on Sunday, December 7th, at 2 PM for a live reading with Chad Story, author of Christmas in the Mountain State.

Christmas in the Mountain State was written in memory of my late parents and as a reflection of my journey to discover the beauty of our state. As a child growing up in the coalfields of West Virginia with limited means, I was not aware of many of the exciting and unique places that make our state great. With this book, I hope to inspire young readers (and adults, too) all over West Virginia to see their home in a new light. The book is a full-color holiday story that follows Jay, the red cardinal, as he travels through West Virginia — from the gold dome in Charleston to the lights at Chief Logan State Park, historic Harpers Ferry, the New River Gorge Bridge, The Greenbrier, and beyond.

The author Chad Story will be available after the reading to sign books and meet guests. Books will be available for purchase. As a perk for attending, Discovery World on Market will do a drawing for all the guests that attend and give away 20 signed books!

This live reading will be held in the newly renovated 4th-floor theater and will be included with museum admission or membership.
