Cass District Library will host Dean Kuipers, author of "Burning Rainbow Farm," to talk about his writing experience, sign his book and answer guests' questions.

Kuipers has agreed to arrive an hour early to mingle and chat with guests before his presentation. Refreshments will be provided for everyone's enjoyment.

Kuipers is visiting Cass District Library as part of the Library of Michigan's 2007 "Michigan Notable Authors Tour." This year, 18 authors whose engaging works were chosen as 2007 Michigan Notable Books selections will visit nearly 70 libraries throughout the state.
