Rochester Children's Book Festival

I propose a Family Field Trip for all who would like to attend. The Rochester Children's Book Festival is coming up on November 8 from 10-4 at the Monroe Community College Brighton Campus. "The Rochester Children's Book Festival is a free daylong family festival that invites young people and adults of all ages to experience the magic of books and meet some of their creators. With so many books and events being offered, there’s something for everyone!" It looks like there will be lots of books, from picture books to Young Adult Novels and Non-fiction, and over 40 authors and illustrators will be there to run programs and read their books. The website has a schedule of events, a list of the authors/illustrators and their books, and lots more information. Apparently, the zoo is even going to make an appearance. Check it out and let me know if anyone is interested.

Amy,
That sounds like fun. I am on vacation that week, so Emma and I are in! Let me know what your plans are.

I love books! Especially ones with pictures. I would love to go too. Let us know what the plans are. I am going to pass your email onto the Dickson's, as I think they might like to join us.

Great! The Dicksons are practically Lorenzettis anyway. :) Once I have a better idea of who is coming (and from where), we'll figure out the specifics. This is going to be fun!
