Children's author Barbara McGrath visited the Mary Lyon K-8
School in Brighton today to talk to students in kindergarten through
grade 4 about the creative writing and book publishing process.
Barbara, a former pre-school teacher, has written more than 20
books for children, inclding the award-winning The M&M's Brand
Counting Book and The Little Green Witch. Barbara will visit many
Boston Public Schools this year -- including the P.A. Shaw, O'Hearn,
Chittick, Ohernberger and Perry elementary schools -- as part of
a new non-profit progam Authors Talk, Too, which brings published
authors and illustrators into urban and other low-income schools
for free, informative, and fun presentations designed to inspire
students to become capable writers. (originally posted by Chris
