November is Picture Book Celebration month

Picture Book Month is an international literacy initiative that celebrates the print picture book during the month of November.

Founder, Dianne de Las Casas (author & storyteller) storyconnection.net, and Co-Founders, Katie Davis (author/illustrator) katiedavis.com, Elizabeth O. Dulemba (author/illustrator) www.dulemba.com, Tara Lazar (author) taralazar.wordpress.com, and Wendy Martin (author/illustrator) wendymartinillustration.com, put together their worldwide connections to make this happen.

Every day in November, there is a new post from a picture book champion explaining why he/she thinks picture books are important.  The world needs picture books. There's nothing like the physical page turn of a beautifully crafted picture book.

Join the celebration and party with a picture book!  Enjoy a picture book with your family. Come to the library and borrow your favourite picture book or visit a book store and buy a book.
