This week is Children's Book Week! Has anyone done something special in their library to celebrate or highlight this week?
The official Children's Book Week bookmark for 2013 is by Grace Lin, the Newbery Honor author of Where the Mountain Meets the Moon. The official poster is by Brian Selznick.
Here's the Children's Book Week official website. It has a printable version of the bookmark.
This site shows what individual states are doing to celebrate this awesome week. Notice what Utah is doing. Gail Carson Levine will be at the Provo Public Library tomorrow (Friday) and also on Saturday! On Saturday, the Provo Library will also have many different Children's Book Week activities for the kids----face painting, crafts, life-sized book characters, treats, games, puppet shows, book displays, a maypole, live owls, and free books for the first 500 children. Sounds like fun! :-)
