Book Launch: The Ember Stone

  • Big Blue Marble Bookstore 551 Carpenter Lane Philadelphia, PA, 19119 United States (map)

Local middle schoolers Rachel Feldman and Sylvie Merryman-Lotze present their new fantasy novel, The Ember Stone.

Join us at 2pm on Sunday, March 5 in Big Blue Marble's upstairs reading room to celebrate the book launch and get your copy signed! Please pre-order to guarantee availability.

Rachel and Sylvie are 7th graders, best friends, and avid readers and writers. Together, they began writing The Ember Stone when their Philadelphia area school went into lockdown in March 2020. Their middle-grade novel was published with the support of the Society of Young Inklings, and features cover art by James Firnhaber.
