Children's Book Festival 2011

Children's Books Ireland has announced the illustrator for this year's Book Festival poster and catalogue. And it is..... (drum roll inserted here).... the wonderful Niamh Sharkey!!!!
During the month of October, the entire country will be snacking on all kinds of tidbits from children's literature. There's a brilliant catalogue full of reviews and recommendations of children's books for all ages. Libraries, bookshops and schools... and other venues across Ireland will be loaded with events to bring the joy of books to children.

Check out the link below for more sneaky bits of information.
