[CASL-L] Authors' Visits

[Shannon McNeice]

Hi Cheryl!

Since it's late in the planning process, here is the list of CT authors and
illustrators who live in CT
<https://ctstatelibrary.org/CT-Authors-Illustrators>from Linda Williams at
the State Library...

There is also this great list from Lee and Low
<https://www.leeandlow.com/writers-illustrators/locate-an-author/>

Plus, Nikki Grimes has a list
Persons of Color Literary Panel for Young Readers Resource List
<https://www.nikkigrimes.com/educators.html>
Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Shannon
