Author Sara Condrey will be holding a book signing at Books Beads and More 8106 Mechanicsville Turnpike, Mechanicsville VA 23111 held on Saturday August 5th, from 11-2.


Her new book - "Sisters" is a sweet children's book about a nervous girl on the first day of school who is reassured by her older sibling. But that's just the surface story. The little sister is deaf and she's afraid of how the other children will receive her. This story is especially important to her and was inspired by her grandfather, who was also deaf. All her life, I watched people discount him or ignore him because he couldn't hear. They didn't know about his talents, interests or the deep well of kindness inside him because they believed his deafness was all he was. I wanted to write a story to show a whole person who also happens to be deaf.


With the incredible talent of my wonderful illustrator Stephanie Anduro the pictures include many ASL signs and an additional page of signs at the end of the story. This stoy was dedicated to her Papa
Sara is the author of 17 books in various genres including children's books, thrillers, horror, and light romance.
