Festival of Books celebrates reading, writing
This summer, children of all ages
can get exposed to books in a whole new way! The Second Annual South Dakota
Festival of Books, Aug. 27-29, in downtown Sioux Falls will celebrate reading,
writing and literary arts. Kids will have the opportunity to be read to by
authors and celebrity readers, listen to professional storytellers, meet their
favorite storybook characters, and make book-related crafts. The event is a
program of the South Dakota Humanities Council.
Teachers, administrators and librarians also are invited to attend. Events
will be organized in six tracks: fiction, non-fiction, history, writers’
support, poetry and children’s literature.
For more information on the festival, visit

Book at (605) 688-6031. |
