11th Annual Children's Book
Discovery Evening
The Susan P. Bloom Award presentation
THE AMPHITHEATRE

Winners:  
Maria Gianferrera for her picture book, Terrific Tongues, Anna Staniszewski for her middle grade novel, The Tinkerers, J. James Keels for his YA novel, Starving Hysterical Naked, and Shelagh Smithfor her YA novel, A Mouthful of Straw

Reception to follow... Free and open to the public.  
The winning manuscripts, chosen by the Children's Book Committee, will be read by editors from 
CandlewickHoughton Mifflin and Knopf Books for Young Readers.

Now this one I can't say I will attend.  Sundays nights are tough for me (I need to rest up for the week!).  But if someone really wanted to go I could be persuaded.  In the name of camaraderie.
