We met at Harper College and the main room we used was awesome!
There was a display of 2010 books by Illinois Writers and/or illustrators. If you squint, you can see 1 Zany Zoo towards the top of the rack on the right :-)
Every year, the committee chooses from among the authors whose debut came out that year and gives the lucky person Book Tour Alex. Guess who the lucky person was?
Here's a close-up of Alex.
Pictures compliments of Bethany Robinson - thanks!
Congratulations on getting Book Tour Alex for your touring companion!
ReplyDeleteI was at the conference, too, and it was amazing. I love our chapter. :)
Thanks for the pics! I had a tough choice between a family outing and this and chose family, but I still wish I could have still squeezed it in!!
ReplyDeleteI was at the conference, too! Thanks for posting the close-up picture of Alex. It was hard to see her from where I was sitting. :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun touring with her!
Tabitha - I agree, we have a great chapter!!
ReplyDeleteKelly - It seems like you go for weeks without an event, then they're all scheduled for the same day! There's always next year! When are you moving?
Cattapan - she's a little creepy but not as bad as the baby dolls they had on the Twilight Zone!
