Teen Book Mania

My library is hosting it's first teen author event next Saturday June 5. Teen Book Mania will be held at 2pm and features four YA authors: Brent Crawford, Jenny B Jones, Brian Katcher and Holly Schindler. There will be Q&A session as well as a book signing.

If you're in SW MO (or want to drive!) and would like more info on the event, send me an e-mail and I'll give you more info.

I'm also looking for good author questions to ask for our author Q&A, so if you have any favorite author panel questions, let me know!

  1. I would love to go, but I'm working back home in St. Louis for the summer. I will be returning to Springfield in the fall though, and I plan to drop by the library sometime then to say hi! :)

  2. WOW! How exciting. I hope it goes well Sarah. I'd love to do something like this at my library so if you have any tips about organizing such an event, I'd love to hear them.

  3. That sounds like a terrific event--maybe you can plant some questions with the teens in case they're shy to get started. I always like to ask what the author has on their nightstand to read--they've always got an answer for that one!

    Maybe a teen could ask how they think being a teenager now is different from being a teenager when they were in high school....

13 District Mockingjay Tour: District 4

Hello and welcome to District Four. I'm sorry that Finnick isn't here to be your host. I know as a member of District Four I should be cheering for my own tribute, but after watching the last two Hunger Games play out I have fallen in love with Peeta Mellark! Why do I love Peeta? He's smart, he's funny, and he's charming. He stands up for what he believes, he's loyal and he's not afraid to do what's right. He's sensitive and caring but can also be strong and kick butt. He fights for Katniss and with Katniss. Peeta is a great diplomat and he knows how to bring people together. He can also be sneaky to get what he wants. Plus, did I mention he can bake? And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where ...
