ISU graduate and former Pebble Creek ski instructor publishes children’s book

SU graduate and former Pebble Creek ski instructor publishes children’s book POCATELLO — A former Pebble Creek ski instructor and Idaho State University graduate has published a book to inspire young children to have the confidence to learn to ski. Josh Kent, the author of the book titled “Send It Sally Goes Skiing,” said in emails to the Idaho State Journal that he graduated from ISU back in 2005. He worked as a ski instructor for Pebble Creek during his years in college. “Those days at The Rock inspired me to write ‘Send It Sally Goes Skiing,’” Kent said in the emails. “Send It Sally Goes Skiing” is a rhyming book for children ages 2 to 10. It follows its title character, Sally, and her friends as they have fun skiing on the mountain. “It’s all about courage, confidence and having fun on snow,” Kent said in the emails. “I wrote it to inspire my niece to rip after teaching her three older brothers to charge.” Since the book has been published, it has made its way to the shelves of many ski lodges, including Pebble Creek, where it is on display for parents who want to sign their children
