[kids-lib] Possible author for library programs

[Katie Anderson]

Hi!  I just received the following email from local author Deborah Hopkinson.  She is now booking author visits for 2011-2012.  Please note that she has developed the program 'Last Night on the Titanic' for her upcoming book Titanic Voices from the Disaster.  If you can't book her in April 2012 for the Titanic anniversary, her program may align well with the 2012 summer reading program theme which will be 'night'.  Contact Deborah directly to find out more:

Deborah Hopkinson: New Books and Library Programs
Portland author Deborah Hopkinson, winner of an Oregon Book Award for Keep On! and author of the 2009 Oregon Reads featured book, Apples to Oregon, has four books in 2012, two of which tie in to major anniversaries. She is booking school and library visits for the 2011-12 year.

A Boy Called Dickens will be out in January, in time for the Dickens Bicentennial in February.

Titanic Voices from the Disaster, will be released in time for the April 15 centennial of the disaster. Deborah is available for a special "Last Night on the Titanic" family night or library event to include a slide show presentation, along with a book signing and perhaps a screening of A Night to Remember or the Titanic film. It might be a great way to attract readers ages 9-14!
