The second author for Naperville READS 2008, Daniel Pink, will speak at the Chamber Luncheon on Monday at the Wyndham Hotel-Lisle, and speak to teachers at Waubonsie Valley High School as the in-service project on Monday after school.
Then the author of "Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future," will meet with 800 Naperville Central High School students at 440 W. Aurora Ave. on Tuesday morning, and then speak at a public program at 7 p.m., Tuesday, at Pfeiffer Hall at North Central College.
Art students at North Central College will also show off their new DVD, "THE BRAIN," which was inspired by the author’s book.
Naperville North art instructor Amy Murphy headed the program.
He's a right-wing nut, so we'll see how much of the liberal community in Naperville respond.
Just saw your blog about Naperville READS and wanted to clarify that the AMAZING computer animation DVD - The Brain - was created by art/animation students at Naperville Central High School under the guidance of Mrs. Murphy, an instructor at NCHS (not Naperville North H.S. or North Central College as was mentioned in your blog.) This incredible animation is just exactly the kind of creative and fun work (or is it play?) that Naperville READS is meant to inspire! Also, I was at Daniel Pink's interactive presentation given at NCHS Tuesday morning in honor of Naperville READS 2008, and he rocked. Watch for the release of his new book, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko: The Last Career Guide You'll Ever Need. Reserve your copy today at Anderson's Bookshop, 630.355.2665.
