Join award-winning authors
Annie Bailey,
Laurel Neme,
Annette Bay Pimentel, and
Melissa Seron Richardson for a virtual event exploring their picture book writing processes. These authors’ works span a wide range of topics, including biographies, the natural world, and cultural literacy. The authors will discuss how they find topics and themes that resonate with young readers and how they collaborate with illustrators to create works of literature that dance between short story and poetry. These picture books show children their own reflections, as well as worlds they may not yet have encountered, cultivating a lasting relationship with literature.
*This event is virtual and will premiere on our
YouTube channel at the time scheduled above.
