About the Author

I have a display wall in the library that I'm never sure what to do with.  I put books on it, and the kids grab those books immediately (now I know how the Hoover Public Library feels when I pick from their displays).
So I decided to make it a wall to feature authors.  This month I chose Christopher Paul Curtis (my favorite children's author), Kate Dicamillo and Marc Brown.  Even if students take the books on the display by those authors, maybe they will notice the information about the author and be interested enough to reserve books by those authors from me or go the the HPL and get books there.
