Caldecott winner Kevin Henkes, author of Bird Lake Moon, and Newbery Medal winner, Lynne Rae Perkins, author of Criss Cross, visit Anderson's. Two great authors. One great night! Join us.
About the books: Bird Lake Moon, by Kevin Henkes.
The whole time Spencer and Mitch hang out together at Bird Lake, there
are secrets keeping them apart--and maybe a secret knowledge keeping
them together. This latest novel by Newbery Honor author Henkes tells a
story about that pivotal growing-up moment when one stops telling
everything and starts holding some things in. Spencer
thought the house might be haunted. Mitch knew it wasn't. And he
knew why. The whole time Spencer and Mitch hung out together at Bird
Lake that summer, there were secrets keeping them apart. And maybe a
secret knowledge keeping them together, too--together like members of
the same tribe. Like friends.

cross--over one summer. Illustrated throughout with photos and
illustrations by the author. While
wishing for something good to happen to her, Debbie's story criss
crosses with those of her friends in this remarkable new book by the
author of acclaimed, award-winning All Alone in the Universe. |
