The problem of course with them is there would no room for all the books I buy at book festivals. :-)<br /><br />How incredible that you had the privilege of escorting authors around the festival. I'd love to have met Jacqueline Woodson!<br /><br />In the past, I've covered our local children's book festival in just one post too. This year, I expanded my coverage to several posts, but list all the links on one page.

One of these days I'm going to get to the one in DC, which is amazingly the closest (I think) to me. AND then, you get to stay in a tiny house! I love tiny houses! I actually subscribe via email to a tiny house website that posts new tiny houses (and some for sale). Of course, what a big amount of down sizing we'd all have to do, but sometimes I think it would be worth it!

I want to some day re-visit Austin, and what better time to plan a visit than during a book festival!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-44543887332775541082014-11-09T02:02:47.613-06:002014-11-09T02:02:47.613-06:00Great post and photos!
