Writing About Your Childhood Memories

Childhood memories can be delightful. Painful. Or both. They can be amusing.  Serious. Or both. Childhood memories get you thinking. This unique class, offered for the first time by award-winning children’s book author Amy Hest, is a great opportunity to write about and share some of your childhood memories in a warm and supportive environment. No rules, no structure, just a chance to revisit a place, a time, the child that was you.
