AMANDA WEST LEWIS is a writer, theatre creator and calligrapher who is passionate about respecting the rights of young people, and works to see the world from their perspective. She believes strongly in the energy of youth, and in listening to their voices as they navigate their lives. 'Focus. Click. Wind' tells a story behind political activism and turmoil in the 1960s, leading to the question -- "How far would you go to change the world?" 'These Are Not the Words,' is a semi-autobiographical novel that uses prose, poetry, jazz and Shakespeare to confront addiction and mental health issues in the lower East side of Manhattan, 1963. 'A Planet is a Poem,' illustrated by Oliver Averill is a picture book combining poetry and non-fiction. Each planet in our solar system is represented by a different poetic form. It's a book that embraces the thrill, mystery and passion of discovering our Solar System. Amanda has published nine books for young readers and was the Founder and Artistic Director of the Ottawa Children’s Theatre. She holds an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts.
