Ken Cadow

Kenneth M. Cadow is an educator and writer who lives in Pompanoosuc, Vermont. Gather is his first young adult novel.  The novel was a finalist for the National Book Award.  Gather is the 2024 Vermont Reads selection from Vermont Humanities.  We are honored to host him as part of the Festival.  

About his book, he says, “In my teaching career, I have encountered dozens upon dozens of stories like Ian’s: kids whose spirits are threatened to be crushed by societal disregard. The kids who are able to pull through by the ingenuity of their skill set and the strength of their character, as well as the care of their larger communities, are some of the strongest people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.”
