Date/Time: May 13, 1:00

Children’s book author Kelly Crull will moderate a conversation with fellow award-winning picture book authors who also call Iowa home (Tina M. Cho, Jill Esbaum, Victor D. O. Santos, and Elizabeth Gilbert Bedia), offering a behind-the-scenes look at the children’s picture books being created across the state. The authors will highlight the books that resonate most with young readers and share how local connections make these stories especially effective in Iowa communities. They will also offer practical ideas for incorporating their books into youth and adult programming, displays, library collections, and community partnerships.
