The 32nd annual Spring Festival of Children’s Literature!
April 25th-26th, 2014
Traditionally held on the last weekend in April, this annual event attracts participants from the Eastern United States. Its purpose is to provide librarians, educators, students, and other advocates the opportunity to experience first-hand interaction with celebrated authors, illustrators and storytellers.
The festival concludes with the presentation of the Betty Roemmelmeyer Children’s Literature Advocate Award, given to an area teacher, librarian, or individual that possesses and nurtures a love of literature.
The 2013 recipient is Ellen Mager.
