65 Booksellers Take Part in the BEA Kidlit Illustrators’ Tour
“There were, of course, some challenges as 17 small groups of booksellers from all over the U.S. used various modes of public transportation on a steamy day to make their way from Javits to up to three different studios – a few in Manhattan, but most of them in Brooklyn…Despite transportation woes, all the participants PW spoke with praised the tour for being – like the best children’s books – both educational and entertaining. And the glasses of chilled Prosecco that were poured and kept filled for booksellers at one Brooklyn studio made the venture feel even more celebratory.”
