Book Quest Celebration

We are pleased to bring back an in person BookQuest celebration to recognize all of our Grizzly Authors, present and past!  Please join us on Thursday, April 7th, 2022 from 6 PM to 7:30 PM to check out what our Grizzly Authors have accomplished!  We will serve light dinner outdoors from 6 PM to 6:30 PM. Please RSVP using the volunteer link below by Sunday, April 3rd so that we order enough food.  We will continue the celebration in the Multipurpose Room (no food/drinks allowed inside).

If you have published a book this year or in the past years, please come celebrate the love of creative writing with us!  If you are new to BookQuest or interested in learning more, come join us to see some of the published work and get inspired!  Please check out the article in the Los Altos Town Crier covering our very first BookQuest Celebration: https://www.losaltosonline.com/schools/gardner-bullis-celebrates-student-authors/article_583a6adc-9d7f-5650-81be-62a9a0d83754.html.

Writing is a key cornerstone to develop our communication skills.  We are extremely pleased to see some of the works embody such thoughtful preparation, and also reflect the authors’ unleashed imagination.  

During the celebration, 51 books that were published this year will be on display (authors can take books home after the event) and we encourage anyone who had published a book in the past through the BookQuest program to bring their books to the celebration (we have published approximately 370 books so far!).  We will have a “BookQuest Alumni” table where you can proudly display your work and let others admire it (please indicate within the RSVP area if you are planning to bring a book published in previous years). This year, thanks to our school community, the BookQuest program raised $430, which will be donated to a charitable cause. 

We would love to share some of the students’ published books with the audience so if you are willing to read your book or share your writing experience with us, please let us know. We are looking for several volunteers who can share the love of writing with others.
