Hi Jackie - 

Kate Messner's blog has great ideas from World Read Aloud Day along with links to authors. 

It's a place to start.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to the LMS position this year and was looking to get some advice/help in securing and researching authors' visits.  I am planning on a #Appreciate Diversity Celebration during the month of April and was looking for authors who write diverse literature.  Does anyone have any suggestions or know of any links or authors that I can look into?  I've tried emailing publishers and authors outright and so far have had no luck or responses.  Are there any suggestions for inexpensive visits, virtual would be fine as well, and also specific authors?

I would really appreciate your help with this!  The students would be beyond inspired!

Thank you ahead of time!
