27 Kidlit Creators Assemble for the “Turning the Page, New Stories for Newtown” Event
“The event kicked off Friday, May 17, when two or three authors visited each of Newtown’s public schools and St Rose of Lima School, and concluded the next day at Newtown Middle School with an event for all residents. Saturday’s program was open to the public and was highlighted by five thematic panel presentations in the auditorium, and a meet-and-greet in the cafeteria, where authors signed copies of their books. The books were provided free of charge courtesy of nine book publishers. Professional illustrators led interactive art activities in the cafeteria as well.”
