Please join SJWG member Ellie Kirk for the launch of her new book, Bonnie Bailey and the Faire of Worlds, on Saturday, May 10, from 3:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m., at Ostara’s Coffee House (600 Park Blvd., West Cape May, NJ). Ellie will read a short excerpt from her book, and there will be activities, crafts, and lots of snacks. If you have a copy of Ellie’s book, bring it along for her to sign, or purchase a copy at Ostara’s.
Cape May is spectacular in the spring—come down early, spend the day, then stop by Ostara’s for treats and conversation!
Bonnie Bailey and the Faire of Worlds is a contemporary fantasy for middle-grade readers. To save her family’s honey farm, thirteen-year-old Bonnie Bailey agrees to join the magical Faire of Worlds. Bonnie is enchanted by the larger-than-life residents and fantastic creatures she meets, but she soon learns that everything is not as peaceful as it seems. There’s world-ending danger hiding in the Faire’s shadows, and it’s up to Bonnie and her newfound friends to save the Faire of Worlds from destruction.

Ellie Kirk lives at the southernmost tip of New Jersey where she spends as much time as possible at the beach rescuing stranded horseshoe crabs, picking up litter, and petting lots of dogs. When Ellie’s not at the beach she enjoys working in her pollinator garden, a safe haven for bugs, birds, and bees. Ellie also makes the best homemade cannoli in all the land (shells and filling!). You can find the recipe (and more) at www.elliekirk.com.
