Local Teacher Publishes Book

Local author Christy Dietz recently published her first book, a young adult dystopian thriller titled "Serpentine." The Hershey resident and Middletown teacher will sign and sell copies of her book from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Saturdays, Aug. 21 and Sept. 18, at the Market on Chocolate, which is held in the area adjacent to the Hershey Volunteer Fire Department.

"Serpentine" tells the story of Esther, an orphan who becomes the leader of the resistance after the United States is taken over by a sinister group called the Federation. Those in the resistance are willing to sacrifice their lives for freedom, God, and an everlasting hope.

Although "Serpentine" is Dietz's debut novel, she has been writing since she picked up her first crayon. One of four daughters, she spent her childhood years dreaming of becoming Jo from Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women." She has two young sons.
