Highly Demanded Children’s Mystery Author Makes Homecoming Appearance at Barnes & Noble in Greenville, North Carolina

Greenville, NC – Nationally acclaimed children’s author Carole Marsh is kicking off the New Year with a rip-roaring return to young fans and old friends in the Greenville, North Carolina area. After spending the afternoon with students at Ridgewood Elementary School in Winterville, the author will be available for autographing at the Greenville Barnes & Noble in the University Commons Shopping Center on January 24, 2012, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Coinciding with Marsh’s author signing is the launch of her latest Real Kids! Real Places! America’s National Book Series titles: The Baseball Mystery, The Great Train Mystery, and The Awesome Atlanta Mystery. All 48 books in the wildly popular Real Kids! Real Places! America’s National Book Series are a part of Accelerated Reader, and several have been added to the new Common Core Maps recommended works lists. The three new titles, scheduled for release in January 2012, will be available for purchase at Barnes & Noble along with a variety of her best-selling releases including The Mystery of Mimi’s Haunted Book Shop and her latest tween/YA novel, WHEN KIDS TAKE OVER NASA.

More than 30 years ago, the residents of the Greenville and Winterville communities were the first to embrace Marsh as a novice author and support the launch of her Blackbeard-inspired novel, The Missing Head Mystery. Eventually renamed The Mystery of Blackbeard the Pirate, the story features her real-life son and daughter as characters in the book. Over the years, Marsh has continued writing with her trademark style, and The Carole Marsh Fan Club has received more than 8,500 applications from young readers who want to be a part of her next book.

Though best known for her children’s mysteries, which are famous for attracting even the most reluctant readers, Marsh is also the beloved author of hundreds of other children’s books and educational materials. As a tireless advocate of literacy, her books and educational products make her one of North Carolina’s most esteemed authors.

From quaint and humble beginnings, Marsh’s career has grown exponentially since.

Her publishing house, Gallopade, has earned many awards including the Learning Magazine’s Teacher’s Choice Award, iParenting Media Award for Greatest Products, and the NSSEA Excellence in Education Awards.
