A MESSAGE FROM OUR DIRECTORS
​
Please save the date of Saturday, November 8th for our 28th Annual Rochester Children's Book Festival at Monroe Community College. This fun, free celebration of literacy and learning will take place from 10:00 - 4:00pm, with presentations for all ages in three different rooms every half hour.
Your little ones will be entertained making book-related crafts and listening to picture book readings. Tweens & teens will love attending presentations by the creators of their favorite books. Best of all, your family can interact with around 50 authors and illustrators as they sign books for purchase.
​
Stay tuned for more information. See you November 8th!
