Thank you for supporting this partnership! \nEvent Facebook Page \nAbout our featured presenters:\nNancy E. Merrill is a mom of two children who were born in Hong Kong where she lived and worked for many years. Living there was an important element in the creation of Elf Dust. Highrise apartment life meant there were no chimneys and Santa wasn’t going to land on the roof. Something had to be found to ignite imagination and magic for her kids. Elf Dust did not disappoint. Today\, Nancy lives in South Carolina after a consulting career around writing\, communications\, and creativity. She is delighted to offer Elf Dust to all who celebrate Christmas and the magic of imagination. \n  \nColleen Sgroi dreamed of being an artist since she was a young girl. Her work is available worldwide on puzzles\, calendars\, prints\, and greeting cards\, and her art has been included in films by major motion picture companies. Her illustrations in children’s books have earned her a Moonbeam Best Illustrator Award\, Feathered Quill Book Award\, Mom’s Choice Awards\, and IBS International Book Awards. She lives and creates in Massachusetts. \n  \n“A new addition to our Christmas library. Children will fall in love with the elves and Elf Dust. The illustrations bring you back to your childhood. Absolutely beautiful. This book will be your go to picture book this holiday season. Can’t wait to use this with my class.”–Heidi Lane\, author and educator \n  \n\nThis program and others like this would not be possible without your financial help for which\, as always\, Pat Conroy Literary Center gratefully thanks you.
