So cool to see this featured on your blog! The Kids Author Carnival has a pretty informative tumblr with a more detailed list of the authors, an overview of the mission and philosophy behind it, and some hints at what to expect from the event: http://kidsauthorcarnival.tumblr.com/
(I gotta say, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime historical moment. Mainly because this will probably be the only time in all of history that my name will be on a list with so many phenomenal authors. Unless they do a “one of these things is not like the other” game some time or something. So yet another reason not to miss the carnival.)
Heh. I was just thinking “Yikes, what’m I doing up there with all those authors?”
Elizabeth, thanks for posting this!
You should contact Chris Grabenstein, author of Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library and co-author of the I Funny Series with James Patterson. His books and presentations are wonderful!
