A Special Event!

The Story Behind Lorenzo The Magic that is Kid Literature

A Special Event!

This month is a very special month, do you know why? I can see all of you scratching your heads, trying to guess what the reason might be. Let me help you out no it has nothing to do with Easter. Did that help? Hmmm…. No you’re right that didn’t narrow it down much either. It has nothing to do with birthday, anniversary, or party. Or does it……..

Did you guess it?? Not yet!? Okay, okay, I won’t keep you guessing anymore. It’s really mean on my part to keep you in suspense, wondering what in the world is this girl blabbing on and on about.

Okay here it is, are you ready? Come a little bit close to the screen so you can hear…

Closer……..

Closer……………

Closer……………..

That’s too close! Back up just a little!

Much better, thank you! Okay are you ready! Of course you are, I already asked that didn’t I? HAHA! Okay, Okay, for reals this time I promise!!

IT’S THE 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF KID LITERATURE!! WHOOO HOOOO!!

(Background filled with shouts, laughter, and bubbly being poured into glasses)

In honor of the 1 year anniversary for Kid Literature Karen Emma Hall, (founder) Steve Conoboy, Cat Michael’s, along with myself and other contributors have been thinking just how on earth are we going to celebrate this!?! Well, I am here to tell you that we have come up with a smashing way to celebrate! How you ask??

Come closer….

Oh wait, let’s not do this again. I’ll just tell you. Wait for it…. Wait for it… With a weeklong party! WOOT WOOT!! We are going to have videos, games, giveaways and more! Each day starting the 13-19th of April we will be having oodles and oodles of fun!

The Kid Literature Community did not form overnight. We came together as authors with a shared love of not only writing, but also that of reading children’s books (especially picture books). We wanted to create a place where not only could we share our works, but to encourage each other. To grow, to give back. Everything we do, we do it for the kids. That is something we have said since day one, and that is something that will never change. Everything comes back full circle for the kids, and because of the kids.

It was one year ago today that Karen started proposing the idea. Soon, that idea became a reality. Kid Literature became something bigger than any of us could have dreamed of! Kid Literature is made up not just from us Admins, but it is comprised of all of you too! Our supporters, our fans, our friends!

We couldn’t do this without all of you!

Because of this special week, I have decided to dedicate this month of blogs to Kid Literature. The community, the people, and the books. Kid Literature gives so much to all us as writers, parents and most importantly, the children.

So do join us next week for a fabulous party! I assure you it will be a week that you will not soon forget!
