Stop by the library and listen to local youth author, Cedrick Anderson, as he reads from his book, Ceddybones and the Terrifying Lizard.

Ceddy Bones is a skeleton boy from a place not here nor there, a world just like ours, but with a little extra scare.

Join Ceddy Bones as he explores the Great Beside. His world is just like yours, except instead of other humans, its filled with ghosts, ghouls, zombies, and all sorts of other creatures.

The Vernon Library is honoured to present a reading with Ivan Coyote, award-winning author and LGBTQ2S+ advocate. Ivan’s warmth, wit, and wisdom leaves audiences laughing, crying, and contemplating life’s complexities. Inclusivity and empathy inform their work, fostering understanding and compassion. This promises to be an evening that will touch your heart and stay with you long after the final word is spoken.
