Indulge a love of books at Orion Alternative School's annual Children's Author and Illustrator Festival. For anyone with a bookworm in the family, or even if you're just looking for unusual gifts for a child, the festival is a great chance to check out some of your favorite authors or discover new ones, says event spokeswoman Sharon Grant.
The daylong event, which raises money for Orion's school library, brings in half a dozen local authors and artists for book signings, so people can meet an author in a low-key, intimate setting.
In addition, the writers will give individual talks throughout the day in Orion's comfortable classrooms. Sometimes, Grant says, illustrators will even do an impromptu drawing demonstration.
