Calling All Kids’ Book Creators! Kate DiCamillo Gives Top 10 Reasons to Be Part of Indies First Storytime Day
This event was inspired by Indies First, an initiative invented by Sherman Alexie last November, which asked established authors to act as booksellers at their local independent bookstore for a day.
Kate give authors and illustrators ten reasons to sign up for Indies First Storytime Day:
#4. You can help children and families discover the work of new authors and illustrators that you cherish and admire. You will be a book evangelist. It’s an honor to connect a reader with a new writer or artist (and that honor also honors the book stores we are visiting, because it is part of what they do for us every day).
