An interview with author David Yoo

For our January book club meeting, students read and
discussed Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before by
local young adult author David Yoo. After meeting some
of our students at the Barnes and Noble Book Fair last
month, David encouraged students to send him any
questions about his novels or his writing process.
UHS book club students have composed a list of inter- Volume 1, Issue 5
view questions which David will be responding to. We’ll January 7, 2010
be posting this interview on the library blog for all to
read, so be sure and check back in the coming weeks. Uxbridge High School Library
