38th Annual Virtual Spring Festival of Children’s Literature

Final plans are being made for the 2021 Spring Festival of Children’s Literature! This year’s Festival is scheduled for Friday and Saturday, April 23-24, 2021, and takes place virtually using the platform, Cadence. Each of these presenters has created stories which inspire children to become lifelong readers.

Each year, we pack the house full of librarians, educators, parents and students who come to Frostburg State University’s campus to share their love of children’s literature, and to learn more about successful ways to share that love with children. In the “share and learn” atmosphere of the Spring Festival, adults who direct children’s learning interact first-hand with authors and illustrators, who bring characters to life and inspire children to read. Unfortunately, due to the on-going pandemic, this year’s Spring Festival will be shared virtually. COVID-19 may take our ability to gather, however, it will not take our love of reading and ability to share that with one another!

All Featured Author & Illustrator Presentations will be available to view beginning at 9 AM
on their scheduled date, and will be available to view until 11 PM on Saturday, May 1.
