Back in February I posted the girls' books they wrote as part of the Young Author's program at school. I am a little behind on posts as it seems I have neglected to post that Shelby's book was picked as 1 of 3 to represent their school at the district level! Morgan of course was biffed that her book was not selected. Shelby had to prepare a poster to display her book at the Normal Public Library for the month of April.
Coming up in May we will attend a Tea at her school in honor of the 3 representatives. But today she was able to participate in another great activity for all the Young Author's selected to represent their schools. The Normal Public Library hosted a Writer's Workshop presented by published children's book author Carolyn Crimi. She was hilarious and gave the young writer's tips for their future writings. We were able to purchase her books and have them autographed. Morgan chose the book she said was the one she felt was the funniest of those she has had published. It is called Dear Tabby and I agree it is pretty funny. Shelby picked 2 books about a bunny named Henry. They were able to get their pictures taken with her as well.
We will be looking for more of her books in the library or to purchase. It was a great opportunity and a fun time.
