A reading by
Dougie Morris, author of
“Wilhelmina Under the Stairs”
Wilhelmina
has lived her whole life in peaceful safety on the banks of the Maury
River. She’s one of the Maury River rats, a stable, close-knit
pack. But Wilhelmina is bored with safety, tired of being protected.
She longs to break free and strike out on her own. When a flood sweeps
her away from her family, she’s washed downstream and into the
adventure of a lifetime.
Local children’s author Dougie Morris tells the tale of this adventure-parts
of which are based on a true story in her new middle-grades chapter
book Wilhemina Under the Stairs. Dougie comments: “The story explores
the universal issues of gaining independence, finding one’s place
in the world, developing friendships and romantic relationships, and
learning the value of family and community.”
