Samantha Weber""Samantha Weber is a dedicated student who spends most of her time at school. From a young age, she has shown a proficiency for the English language, and has taken great pride in the caliber of her academic writings. With the publication of her firs collection of poetry, Samantha is eager to gain more exposure to the world of writing. Samantha traces her affinity for writing and storytelling back to her days at Elmwood Preschool, where she recalls music classes and basic penmanship being taught to her and her peers.
