SUMMARY:Author Reading: Pamela McColl
DESCRIPTION:Join author Pamela McColl for an exploration of how Christmas became Christmas in the U.S. based on her latest book!\n\n\nJoin author Pamela McColl at Indy Reads on December 5th from 5-6:30pm for a reading\, signing\, and discussion of her book ‘Twas the Night: The Art and History of the Classic Christmas Poem.  \nAll ages are welcome!  \nProceeds from sales at Indy Reads support our English literacy programming for over 400 adult learners each year. \n\n\n\n‘Twas the Night: The Art and History of the Classic Christmas Poem \nIn celebration of the Christmas season’s most well-known and oft-recited poem\, “A Visit From St. Nicholas” (also commonly referred to as “ ’Twas the Night Before Christmas”)\, Pamela McColl provides a collection of illustrations\, snippets of literature\, and historical tidbits related to Clement Clark Moore’s renowned rhyme. The author’s illuminating peek into the formulation and reception of the poem is well organized\, with lovely\, colorful images from various sources peppering the pages of text. Readers are given not only the background of the poem—written in 1822 and published in 1823—but also the origins of St. Nicholas and the varying cultural customs tied to Christmas throughout history. \n\n\n\nMeet the Author \nPamela McColl is an author and publisher. Her latest book ‘Twas The Night: The Art and History of the Classic Christmas Poem  was ten years in the making and brings both her love of history\, art and illustration to the story behind the poem. After studying Canadian and American history she worked for twenty years as a corporate art consultant before beginning her writing and publishing career in the late 1990s. \n\n\n\nThis event is Pay-What-You-Can.
