Mary Ellen Eversman Will Hold Book Signing at the Effingham Public Library 

Effingham resident, Mary Ellen Eversman, will be at the Effingham Public Library for a book signing.  She has recently published a children’s book entitled, Drawn Together – A Class Act, which addresses various mental health concerns and shows children how to appreciate each other’s differences.
