YAB Fest, YAB Fest, YAB Fest - say it quickly 3 times





The Book Spot, Round Rock HS and other district librarians have organized what will be an *awesome* young adult book festival this Sat., May 11th.  

(it's free)

I met two of the attending authors at our TLA conference a couple of weeks back, Jessica Lee Anderson (are you reading this?  Thanks for the great conversation - I'm hopeful!) and PJ Hoover (I hear her new book Solstice is "like crack" - that's according to Mrs. Hance over at Grisham).

(it's free)

Who will be there?  Only fabulous authors such as the above mentioned, Greg Leitich Smith, Rachel Harris, DAVID LEVITHAN (Mrs. Bligh's bff after one dinner)  (if he remembers her) and many more.  Read the poster.

(it's free)

Stop by, chat with an author, get a book (like say, Calli or Solstice) signed and do something different.  Have fun!  Opportunities like this don't happen every day.  Who knew we had so much local literary talent?

May 11
9:00 am-5:00 pm
1100 Building of RRHS off Deepwood Dr.

It's FREE people.
