No Sleep Till Brooklyn (Book Festival 2011, That Is)

Our summer may be drawing to a close, but that doesn't mean our wonderful, story-filled world has too. As a matter of fact, with September comes New York City's largest free literary event, the annual Brooklyn Book Festival!

This year's festival is scheduled for September 15-18 and is a great way for children families to meet the many popular and emerging authors they've experienced only in library books. Many booths at the festival include family-friendly programs such as read-alouds, crafts, photo ops and book signings. This year's list of children's authors includes some of our (and your) all time favorites like...Jon Scieszka, Mo Williems, Jacqueline Woodson, and many many more!

Be sure to visit the official website for all the details. Who knows? You may even catch a glimpse of your friendly neighborhood librarians there as well. :-)

Happy Fall Festival-ing!
