edit data

Sally Valentine is a native Rochesterian, who has been both a student and a teacher in the Rochester City School District.

She wants the children of Rochester to have a series of books like that to help them appreciate their hometown. The next books in the series are Theft at George Eastman House, What Stinks? An Adventure in Highland Park, Lost at Seabreeze, and most recently,STORMED. She has also published an award winning poetry book, There Are No Buffalo In Buffalo. Each poem in the collection is about a different place in New York State.
