This event provides an opportunity for educators to engage in 3 breakout sessions with highly acclaimed authors for children and middle grades.  Participants will receive 25 brief video lessons on writing created by the authors designed to be shared with students.  In addition, a teacher's guide (PDF) that includes a summary of the authors, their videos, and 75 different lesson suggestions will be given to participating educators.  Language Arts teachers (K-8) will walk away thrilled with all the lessons on writing they receive, and general enthusiasts of children literature will gain insight into the newest works being published in the field.
