We have links to over 400 authors/illustrator sites at: http://www.mcelmeel.com/curriculum/authorlinks.html These are sites that are hosted by the author/illustrator themselves -- as opposed to commercial sites. The content is the responsibility of the subject or someone they "hire." Check out the author site http://www.mcelmeel.com/curriculum/authorlinks.html and the state choice award sites at http://www.mcelmeel.com/curriculum/bookawards.html Suggestions for additions to these two sites are always welcome.
