More than two years after author, Kenneth R. Strange Jr.’s book signing at Barnes & Noble in Thousand Oaks, CA was cancelled due to COVID, the Thousand Oaks native has been invited back. A lot has changed in two years–Ken has received both a 2021 IPPY and a 2022 Catholic Media Association award for his religious travel adventure about hiking the 500-mile Camino to Santiago de Compostela in Spain with his wife, Aurora. Ken and his wife will be on hand to talk about their uplifting tale about overcoming emotional and physical challenges in the pursuit of a dream.
