SEVENTH READING : ROCHDALE VILLAGE, JAMAICA, NEW YORK


 August 17, 2013, on the beautiful grounds of Rochdale Village, Linda read her children book Have You Seen My Glasses? to a small, young and eager group of children, still in bathing suits just off one of the water rides.  The festivities were  provided in celebration of the 50th anniversary of this beautifully scenic housing community in Jamaica, New York..

The children were aged 2 to 7.  One little baby girl was given her very own copy of Have You Seen My Glasses? to look at and was delighted to be able to turn each page as the author did during her reading.  Arms shot up with ready answers when Linda asked questions.  Linda kept her reading short and sweet because there was a lot going on as the activities were held outside on the grounds. 

Linda had an invited guest with her,  a young man from Brazil.  Fantastic photographs were taken  of Linda by Mr. Albert Ephraim courtesy of Photographic Focus.  And Linda will be invited to participate in an upcoming youth event later this year.


Here are some photos of the event.....enjoy.....
