James Kennedy and ALA (aka "I Smell Trouble")

Hey Readers! 

This is an impromptu post that is semi-Teen Book Festival related. I don’t know how many of you know this, but the American Library Association (ALA) conference was held this past week and our very own Stephanie Squicciarini gave a presentation entitled “How to Run a Teen Book Festival.” Terry Trueman, Ellen Hopkins, and James Kennedy were there to present with her. 

James just posted on HIS blog about his experience at the conference and it is most certainly something worth reading. (Especially the part about his ummmmmmm confrontation(?) with Laurie Halse Anderson.) As usual, he had me practically rolling on the floor with laughter … 

So readers, check it out! (Follow the link on the word "blog.") You definitely won’t regret it!

Have a GREAT holiday weekend!
