Adam Gidwitz will tell "his personal tale of becoming a writer" at 6:30 pm Nov. 29 in the Children’s Room at the Fairfield Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road, according to a release.
In Gidwitz’s book, "A Tale Dark and Grimm," Hansel and Gretel "take on a new adventure that weaves together many of the Grimm’s tales," the release said.  
"The book is a New York Times bestseller, a 2012 Intermediate Nutmeg Nominee, and was recently selected for Al Roker’s 'Today Show Book Club for Kids.'”   
 In his latest book, "In a Glass Grimmly," Jack and Jill "lead the way with more delights and scares in fairy tale land" the release said.
