This July we are featuring FOUR amazing K-12 authors in our Online Author Talk series! 

Newberry Medal winning author Kate DiCamillo will take us to Deckawoo Drive with everyone’s favorite adventure loving pig, Mercy Watson! 

New York Times bestselling author Max Brallier will talk to us about The Last Kids on Earth, both the book series and the animated series on Netflix. 

Elizabeth Acevedo will be teaching us about the power of poetry with a conversation about her National Book Award winning and New York Times bestselling novel-in-verse, The Poet X. 

And, we will close out the month with Dan Santat, winner of the National Book Award for Young People's Literature, as he inspires tweens and teens to tell their own stories through graphic novels. 

Each talk features the opportunity to participate in author Q&A or pre-submit questions during registration!
