Save the Date for BookFest at Bank Street

"BookFest @ Bank Street

First–mark your calendars! BookFest @ Bank Street 2013 will take place on Saturday, October 19. We will send you an email well in advance announcing when registration will open.

Second–Newbery Medal winner Kate DiCamillo is the keynote speaker for BookFest 2013! Every year, many of you write Kate’s name to answer the post-event survey question “which authors/illustrators would you like to see at BookFest?” After several failed attempts to book Kate for BookFest, they are excited that it’s going to work out this year."

If you would like to be notified by email of this event, please send your new information to Ellen Greene, ellenegreene@gmail.com.
