These two hard-working women and a host of volunteers brought over twenty authors and illustrators together for a fantastic event for the community.
There were panel discussions, author talks, technology talks, book signings, fun activities for the kids and shows by Page Turner Adventures.
I was fortunate to hear Edward Bloor's talk. I loved his novel, Tangerine.
Chris Crutcher was there and Alex Flinn and Doug Wilhelm and so many others.
I enjoyed meeting media specialists, librarians, teachers, administrators and kids.
Such enthusiastic kids!
This is Abigail with Hammy. She told me she LOVES reading.
Haley told me she loves books. Actual books. Not e-book readers.
Abigail and Haley and the other kids and their families who came up to my table reminded me exactly why I do what I do.
Thank you Helen and Sue and all the wonderful people who made the very first April is for Authors a successful event that connected readers to authors and authors to their readers!
