TAPPAN, NY, April 22, 2011 /Books PR News/ -- Children's Author, Alison Kartevold is being showcased the entire month of April at the National Writing for Children Center. Part of this showcase includes a 6-day virtual book tour. Join Suzanne Lieurance, founder and director of the National Writing for Children Center, and the virtual specialist tour hosts as they welcome Alison for her exclusive tour that starts Thursday, April 21.
From making documentaries for PBS, to producing and reporting for network news outlets such as NBC, ABC and CBS, Alison Kartevold's career as an Emmy award winning journalist has taken her across more than two decades and five countries. During that time she has covered everything from natural disasters and high profile missing persons and murders, to presidential campaigns.
Now her taste for adventure and love of family has launched her on a new journey. Kartevold ventured into the realm of fiction at the request of two collaborators she could not refuse. Fueled by the imaginations of her two creative daughters she has written a middle-grade novel, KenKarta: Battle of the Onoxmon, that brims with characters and events the trio dreamt up together. Collectively, mother and daughters have created a spectacular fantasy world wherein tweens and teens can revel.
Alison Kartevold is the youngest of five children who grew up in the Inland Northwest. She graduated with a B.S. in Television Communications from the University of Idaho which is where she first met her husband of 20 years. She has lived in seven states from coast to coast and currently resides in the Pittsburgh area with her family.
