CYPD @ ACPL Fort Wayne

The CYPD conference is for Indiana children's librarians, which I just happen to be at the moment...however, I don't really want to stay a children's librarian forever. But it's a job for now.

The main attraction to this conference was illustrator E.B. Lewis. His work is amazing and it was so nice to be able to see his work displayed and talked about by none other than himself.







2nd on the list of presenters was Jim Gill who writes songs specifically for story time purposes. His enthusiasm and hilarious songs had us all up and participating and laughing so hard we could hardly stand it. Being that it was after lunch, this was much needed to keep us awake!









There was a special luncheon for those attending and another author was there to speak. 2 of my good friends were there...Mary on the left and Jody on the right. Mary is a coworker of mine in the North Madison County Public Library system...and Jody is a former coworker from Muncie. We had a blast!
