Description

Due to circumstances beyond our control, this event has been canceled. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Authors have the unique ability to help readers imagine and truly see different realities—to grow our worldview, world consciousness, and care for people, places, and perceptions leading to positive change. This panel will discuss how we can, through story and craft, provide the mirrors, windows, and doors that let children see possibilities and hope for today—and for the future. With Leslie Helakoski (Are Your Stars Like My Stars?), Buffy Silverman (On a Snow-Melting Day: Seeking Signs of Spring), Supriya Kelkar (Ahimsa) and Erin Brown. Moderated by Jay Whistler.

This event is part of KidLitCon – an annual conference for people who care about and/or blog about children’s and young adult literature.
