Brown Bag Lunch with Montana author Susan Adrian Description:
The Butte-Silver Bow Public Archives will continue its Brown Bag Lunch series on Wednesday, September 27, with a presentation and book signing by Montana author Susan Adrian about her newest book Nutcracked. The book is the story of 12-year-old Georgie, who has always dreamed of being Clara in The Nutcracker...but when it finally happens, it's not at all what she imagined. The Nutcracker’s magic seeps into the real world, putting Georgie’s friend in danger. Everything is falling apart, and it’s almost Christmas! Can Georgie save her friend, the Nutcracker, and most of all, herself?

Susan Adrian is a fourth-generation Californian who now lives in the beautiful Big Sky country of Montana. She began ballet late—at age eight—but got to fulfill her dream of playing Clara in The Nutcracker when she was thirteen, before joining the Sacramento Ballet. Later she got a degree in English from the University of California, Davis. These days she’s settled in as a writer, scientific editor, and mom. When she’s not with her family, she keeps busy researching crazy stuff, traveling, and writing more books.

The presentation will begin at noon and run about an hour at the Archives, 17 W. Quartz. Guests are encouraged to bring a sack lunch. Coffee and water will be provided. Nutcracked is available at Books and Books in butte, and the author is happy to sign books following the presentation.

Brown Bag Lunches are held the second and fourth Wednesdays of every month. Upcoming lectures will focus topics of local interest. For more information, contact the Archives at 782-3280.
