Shulamith Meet the Author Night

Fifty budding young authors of Shulamith School for Girls gathered with their parents and grandparents on Wednesday evening, June 7 for the annual Fifth Grade Meet the Author Night. This was a culminating event for the young authors who began writing their memoirs in December. The students published beautiful scrapbooks that included entries they had written about their lives. The girls learned a great deal about writing and will surely treasure this keepsake for many years to come.

The event also featured Mrs. Dina Rosenfeld, author of the Yossi and Laibel children’s books, who inspired the audience with her journey of becoming an author. She explained the process of writing, editing and working with an illustrator. She reinforced the concept that writing requires correction and editing, and to achieve success, one must be open to constructive criticism and be willing to make revisions.

Thank you to Mrs. Yaffa Schreier and
