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 http://web.sdstate.edu/humanities or call the South Dakota Center for the Book at (605) 688-6031.
