Children's Book Committee

The Children's Book Committee is a community of children's book authors, librarians, teachers, editors, publishers, reviewers, and other professionals in the field of children's literature.  The group meets regularly to examine the state of the publishing industry, the power of book reviews, athor/illustrator and author/editor relationships, freedom to read/freedom to write issues, and the psychological significance of picture books.  They also introduce new children's book writers at their annual Discovery Evening.
