Eleven nationally published children’s authors are coming out to New Canaan for the day and will be discussing their work and themselves at an informal panel discussion from 1:00-2:00pm and from 2:00-3:00pm there will be an opportunity for a meet, greet, and book signing with each of the authors upstairs in the children’s section of the Library.
