Pictured with the VanRipers is Mrs. Hopsicker’s third grade class in the Forestport building: Carol VanRiper, Savanna Krantz, Kaitlyn Makey, Ashlyn Olney, Clayton Christiansen, Dalton Miranda, Davin Miranda, and Gary Van Riper.
Gary and Carol Van Riper, co-author and illustrator, respectively, of the Adirondack Kids series of books, visited the third grade classes at Adirondack Central School on Tuesday, March 15th.
Following a presentation each student received an autographed book and bookmark.
The author visit helped prepare the students for an upcoming field trip through the Adirondack Mountains to The Wild Center in Tupper Lake.
The author visit, books, and field trip were made possible by donations from an anonymous donor.
