Our 4th and 5th grade students welcomed New York Times bestselling author James Ponti for a special author visit! 📚 Known for middle-grade series including City Spies, FRAMED!, and Dead City, Ponti shared his experiences as an author and storyteller with our young readers. The visit gave students a chance to connect the books they read with the person behind the stories—sparking conversations about reading, writing, creativity, and where ideas can lead. #shsatherton #authorvisit #jamesponti #lowerschool #youngreaders
