Local author speaks to NCC Children’s Literature class

Local children’s author Betsy Knode Newton recently spoke to the Nash Community College Early Childhood Education program Children’s Literature class sharing her book titled “Pink Bear.” Newton’s beautifully illustrated young children’s book tells a story that originated with her grandmother, encouraging others to find the good in life. Newton said, “She first told the story of Pink Bear to my mother and her siblings as a way to entertain and inspire. She continued to encourage her children to enjoy life as they grew older and endured The Great Depression.” For more information about Nash Community College’s Early Childhood Education program call 252-451-8235.
