AWARD-WINNING author George Ivanoff will cap off another year of Author for All Seasons sessions at Mentone Public Library this weekend.

The Cheltenham resident will talk about his Royal Flying Doctor Service books, “a high-octane adventure series for children”, written in partnership with the high-flying medical service.

Each book is a standalone story and the series does not need to be read in any particular order.

Ivanoff, who has had several books aimed at a Young Adult audience published, recently won an Honours Award at the KOALAs, the New South Wales annual children’s choice awards for his You Choose: Alien Invaders From Beyond the Stars book.

The author will be joined by emerging young local writers Joe Bosa and Jessi Hooper who will both talk about their original works.

An author appreciation event will be held after Ivanoff and friends’ talks with all authors who have appeared at the Mentone Public Library this year offering books for a special pre-Christmas sale.

Bookings are essential due to the “snug nature” of the library run by volunteers.

‘An Author for All Seasons: Series Six – The Grand Finale’ will be hosted at Mentone Public Library, 36 Florence St, Mentone (rear of the Citizens Advice Bureau) on Saturday 10 December, 11am.

See mentonepubliclibrary.blogspot.com.au, email mentonepubliclibrary@gmail.com or call 9583 8494 for bookings.

Entry by gold coin donation.
