WESTFIELD — When Trudy Knowles was almost 14, she heard on the news about the four little girls killed in their church by the Ku Klux Klan. She felt compelled to write a book about it, which she said was only two pages, which was all that she knew about the Ku Klux Klan at the time.
“That was the moment I realized how powerful books can be,” she said. Fifteen years later, she started writing poetry, and got one published.
