Author Visit with CES Teacher |
Celeste native,
Mrs. Rhonda Riskey, gave a book talk to Celeste Elementary
and Junior High School students on October 27, 2010. Mrs.
Riskey was promoting her newly published book, The
Private Eyes. She talked with students about how
important reading is to every aspect of life, and she
described how books have always been a source of adventure
and escape for her. She encouraged students to find
books on topics of interest to them. Mrs. Riskey credits
her success as a writer to many of the teachers that she had
while in school at Celeste. Riskey is currently working on
the second installment in the series entitled The Private
Eyes and the Case of the Ghost at City Hall.
Since her book is a mystery,
Mrs. Riskey played a mystery character game during her
presentation. Students in the audience asked questions to
guess a character from a famous book. Members from the CHS
book club dressed as the characters and students had fun
bringing them to life as they revealed hints about the
mystery character.
