The 2011 Books for Young Readers conference was a huge success. Thank you so much for all those who participated. Two full days of continuing education and many opportunities to renew friendships were provided, along with autograph signings, Q & A’s with the authors and so much more! The Books for Young Readers executive committee would like to invite you to attend the 25th annual conference in July 2012.
