CHILDREN'S FESTIVAL OF READING CROWD
Time flies by so quickly when you're having fun. Almost a year ago I hosted my first annual FREE AUTHORS PROMOTION in May during my city's Children's Festival of Reading. I reached out to authors around the country with the promise of promoting their lovely books in exchange for donated autographed items to include in my FREE GIVEAWAY to help benefit Dolly Parton's Imagination Library.
