Kids Heart Authors Day Will Spread Literary Love at New England Indie Bookstores...

Lately it seems all the publishing news is, if not bad, at the very least distressing or confusing. Acquisition freezes, layoffs, restructuring. I was happy to see something positive reported in PW: Kids Heart Authors Day, a New England Valentine's Day event cooked up my Mitali Perkins and friends that will connect readers with authors and their books and boost independent booksellers.

Check out the Kids Heart Authors Day site to see the impressive list of bookstores and authors participating.
