Graham Salisbury: 'Calvin Coconut: Trouble Magnet'
Graham Salisbury, Global Reading Challenge guest author, spoke to students from seven Global Reading Challenge schools about growing up in Hawaii and being a writer on Thursday, February 17, 2011 at The Seattle Public Library. His Calvin Coconut books (five in the series so far) are based on his childhood. He talks of all the "stupid" things he did and why he did them, "because I am a boy!" Graham has written many other books including "Night of the Howling Dogs" based on a true story of a 1974 earthquake and tsunami that strikes while 11 Boy Scouts and their leaders are camping at Halape, Hawaii.
