[ISLMA-Share] Author Visit Recommendation

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Hi there,

We just had a great author visit with Rob Besecker, author of Everest
Strong Reaching New Heights with Chronic Illness.  He is a south
suburbanite of Chicago and this memoir is his first book.

His story is one of perseverance and overcoming obstacles to achieve your
goals.  He has been diagnosed with heart conditions and Muscular Dystrophy,
yet was still able to climb to the summit of Mt. Everest.
His story has a added, unexpected, unique twist at the end, b/c he was at
base camp when the 2015 earthquake struck in Nepal.

Please reach out for any questions!

His info is as follows:
