A Hillsboro woman whose debut book on grandparenting was recently released will make a public presentation at 12:30 p.m. Aug. 14 at Marion Senior Center.

Elaine McAllister’s book, “Celebrate Grandparenting,” contains 101 tips for simple meals and snacks to prepare with grandchildren, ways to spend special times with them, and simple crafts to share with children.

Senior center manager Janet Bryant, who coordinated McAllister’s visit, said anyone interested in attending is welcome.
