Shenandoah Children's Literature Conference
Friday, July 2, 2010 at 11:44AM 
This year marked the 25th Annual Shenandoah Children's Literature Conference at Shendandoah University in Winchester, VA. I was honored to be invited to present my work with such luminaries as Katherine Paterson, Amy Krouse Rosenthal, Deborah Wiles (pictured above), Henry Cole, Pamela Duncan Edwards (shown below getting carded - not a staged shot, I swear!), Fred Bowen, Cynthia Cotten and other terrific and talented authors and illustrators.
I also got to see two of my favorite booksellers, Andy and Jen of the Winchester Book Gallery, which hosted a very fun book reading and signing party featuring me and my books. Chicken Butt! tattoos were optional but very much encouraged, as were the wonderful new "Friend of Dotty" stickers Abrams made (Andy, an enthusiastic fan of Dotty, is wearing two in the photo below)!
There was a strange room service charge (a chickenfeed sundae at 2 am?!) but other than that nothing but fun at the conference. Dr. Karen Huff and her dedicated team have a way of making engineering a big complex event look easy. Well done, Karen, Linda, Gretchen, Tonya and many, many others!!!
Can't wait for the 26th Annual!
