Here are a few more photos from the ALA Conference I attended in Chicago last week. Actually, I didn’t take these photos. They came from Lisa Rondinelli Albert who also attended the conference. Thanks, Lisa!
Aren’t Tammi and Lisa cute? They look like they’re having loads of fun!
Hey – that’s my book The Locket peeking out behind Tammi’s right shoulder!

Navy Pier – Chicago
I got home last night from the ALA annual conference in Chicago. I had a fabulous time. Met other children’s authors, talked to two of my publishers (Brian and Mark Enslow), a variety of editors, and other people in publishing.
Kansas City seems like such a sleepy little town after all the activity in Chicago! Navy Pier is a great place to sit and watch the people and boats go by! Wish I could have stayed there longer!
