Hi Folks--
Happy New Year & welcome back! I'm posting this notice for the wonderful
children's librarians at the New York Public Library's new Children's Center (
where the lions are, but around the north side of the building, in the 42nd St.
entrance). If you're in the neighborhood, this might be right up your alley
(literally and literarily).
The Children’s Literary Café at the new Children’s Center at 42nd Street is
pleased to announce our January event on Saturday, January 10th at 2:00 p.m.:
Graphic Elements in Biography and Non-Fiction
Join C.M. Butzer ( Gettysburg ), Meghan McCarthy ( Seabiscuit, the Wonder
Horse ), Sean Qualls ( Before John Was a Jazz Giant ), and Dan Yaccarino ( The
Fantastic Undersea Life of Jacques Cousteau ) as they discuss their work melding
picture book and graphic novel elements with biographical and informational
subjects.
The Children’s Literary Café is a monthly gathering of adults who are fans of
children’s literature. Professionals, librarians, authors, illustrators,
publishers, booksellers, teachers, and anyone else interested in the field are
welcome to attend our meetings. The Literary Café provides free Advanced
Readers galleys, a rotating series of talks with professionals in the field, and
great conversation.
