On Thursday we were honored to have Grace Lin visit our Library. She taught our first and second graders about the publishing process from idea to published book (which most guessed took, oh, approximately two days) and read to us from her books Year of the Dog and Year of the Rat. She was gracious, energetic, and made a lot of dreams come true, to be sure.
Thank you, Ms. Lin! What a fitting time of year for your visit; we are so thankful for the opportunities we have to meet wonderful authors and illustrators like you!
I just finished Where the Mountain Meets the Moon recently and I loved it. The imagery and the way she incorporates all the folk tales. It was great. A perfect read before Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? And she has sequels galore coming out! Squee!
