REMINDER: ILA Meeting - Sept. 13
Visiting Author: Elaine Powers - April 2025
On April 5, guest author Elaine Powers presented her book Guam: Return of the Songs/Guåhan: Ritiran Kånta Siha at the Hagåtña Public Library during the D204 Lions Club Easter Story Time and later at the ILA meeting at Agana Shopping Center. During April 7–11, Ms. Powers visited 20 schools. CHamoru teachers translated the book live—a highlight of her visit.
Elaine A. Powers describes herself as a retired biologist, actor and singer, a conservationist with a passion for reptiles, and an author of over 25 science-based children’s stories and scripts. Her books are inspired by her love of music, rhythm, and most importantly, the natural world around her. Powers writes for kids, but parents and grandparents can learn something new from her books, too.
