we are in the midst of a holiday!!

Guys! Did you know that we are smack dab in the middle of Children’s Book Week??!!? Well, we are, and even though we are getting a late start, we are going to celebrate this monumental occasion on the blog. To get us started, here are some fun facts about Children’s Book Week!

--It is being observed from May 11 to May 17 this year. In 2010 it will be celebrated from May 10 to May 16 and in 2011 it will be from May 2 to May 8!

--It has been celebrated since 1919!

--Every year they announce the Children’s Choice Book Awards Winners! This year that Twilight book won in the teen category; it was the only winning book I had heard of.

--The anchor sponsors are Toys for Tots and Amazon!!!

If you go to the Children’s Book Week website then you can learn tons of other awesome facts very similar to the ones above. You can also download the official 2009 Children’s Book Week bookmark and poster, but frankly, those things didn’t really do it for me. Didn’t have quite the pizzazz Children’s Book Week deserves. That’s why I took it upon myself to design three new posters:





More fun to come!!! We’re going to have the best 3 ½ day celebration of Children’s Book Week possible!!!

You're oven has "!!" points on it. That's cool. Does your toaster have "??" marks??
