[LM_NET] BER's Upcoming Children's Literature Conferences in Chicago & Austin, 7/14/08-77/17/08

[Judy Freeman <BKWSSF@AOL.COM>]

Hi everyone--

Just got back from a fabulous 4 days at ALA in Anaheim.
What a great week. Now I'm getting packed and ready for
and excited about an upcoming BER program that may interest
you--next week's 2-day children's literature conference that
looks to be a whole lot of fun. Along with Anita Silvey
(former editor of Horn Book) and Barbara Swanson Sanders,
children's literature consultant, all three of us will be presenting
a whole mess of workshops on every aspect of children's books.

First we head to Chicago for our Really Big Show, July 14-15,
and then mosey on down to Austin and do it again, July 16-17.
If you have any friends/relatives/collegues/next-door-neighbors
you think should get out more, pass this e-mail on to them.
You can come for one or both days, and we'll each be presenting
4 sessions a day. If you are coming, be sure to come up and say hey.
I love meeting LM_Netters on the road.
