Brooklyn Book Festival

On Sunday, September 23, 2012, I attended the Brooklyn Book Festival.  Oh my goodness, what a crowd!  Each year, the crowd grows larger and larger at this event.  I had a great time meeting teachers, especially.  They are a great source for getting information about  new trends in children’s literature.   The weather was perfect in downtown Brooklyn.  Surprisingly, pigeons were few.  If you’re a New Yorker, you know what I mean by that.  It was interesting debating with people (who don’t write books) who believe that writing a book is a simple task.  Only the idea of writing a book is easy.  The process is anything but.  So, there! To all the people who are only writers in their head.
