There were lots of authors at Kidlitcon, but I'm never good about getting pictures. Did have a nice chat with Laurie McKay, Jordan Sonnenblick, and Michael Spradlin (left to right).
Oh, and preparing for Multicultural Children's Book Day (and MONTH!) in January! Mia is so good at social media and making contacts in order to spread important news. Wow!
Looks like you had a fabulous time meeting and talking with authors. Sounds like a great event.
