A narrative from a young girl inspired to try something new. Archer Addy is a real girl with real dreams and adventures in archery. The Archer Addy book series is written from the original Facebook posts and training journal entries of Addison "Addy" Nachtrieb. Her insights to parents, challenges and how the world works, from her perspective, are funny and sometimes sassy. She's a strong willed girl who will inspire other youth to work hard and never give up.
Keeping in the spirit of inspired youth, the Archer Addy series is illustrated by youth artist, 17 year old Hayden Beaty.
Archer Addy's journey in Archery has taken her from beginner to National Champion in two short years. It wasn't easy and came with hard work and sacrifice. The first book in this series, "I'm Trying Something New!" follows Archer Addy from the first time she picks up a bow and arrow to her first big tournament. How did her journey start? How did she get to her first tournament? Find out how she manages this new endeavor and her skeptical parents. Does the first tournament turn out as expected?

It's a great read for any youth with big dreams and a will to succeed."
Jamie Van Natta (15th World Ranked Female Compound Archer - 2014) "I very much enjoyed the first Archer Addy book. It reminded me of my own experiences growing up in archery and my excitement at my first big tournament, as well as my relationship with my father as we were learning the sport together. Addy's insights are excellent and I look forward to reading of her future adventures and watching her grow up in this sport. The art is really well executed."
A great read for girls and boys pursuing any endeavor. Read the book and follow the real Archer Addy on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and her website as she continues to share her archery and life journey with you.
