Hi All—I remembered today that the Library of Congress hosts the National Book Festival in Washington D.C. every year and they have a large roster of famous authors that come to speak at the festival. They also videotape all the events and talks and host them online.

So I spent some time today looking over the extensive list of authors and found some children’s and YA authors in the roster. I thought those of you who are big readers and future authors, might enjoy seeing an author talk. Since we can’t do that in person, I’ll be posting some of those author talks here.

The first one I chose is Rania Telgemeier—the author of the graphic novels “Smile,” “Sisters,” “Drama,” and “Ghost.”

Enjoy her talk by clicking here.
