Thanks to the Free Library of Philadelphia who put on an awesome book fest. The lineup was stellar. Miss Carlson and I heard Chris Van Allsburg, speak about his new book Queen of the Falls, Caldecott winner Erin Stead was there with her husband and collaborator. The two explained their writing and illustrating process for A Sick Day for Amos McGee. We heard National Book Award Winner, Mockingbird author Kathryn Erskine, three of the authors from the 39 Clues, and last but not least Mr. Walter Dean Myers who spoke about new new book Carmen and having and giving value to ones life.
(Wow! I can't believe I next to Mr. Walter Dean Myers. Is it me, or does he not seem so happy to pose with me. I made him anyway.)
(I'm deep in thought with the author of a new series, The Emerald Atlas, John Stephens, former co-producer and writer for The Gilmore Girls and The O.C., who became executive producer (and occasional writer and director) for Gossip Girls.)
