25th Annual Children's Book Fest in March

Attention Wisconsin, Minnesota and Upper Michigan librarians, teachers, parents, reading specialists and members of the general public who are interested in learning about the best books for young people!  You are invited to attend Children's Book Fest 2012, a two day conference held at the First Congregational Church of Christ, 135 E. Larch St., Rhinelander, Wisconsin on March 6 and 7.

The ever popular, thoroughly informed and entertaining staff of the Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC) in Madison Wisconsin will discuss books for children and young adults at an evening presentation on Tuesday, March 6, as well as at a day presentation on Wednesday, March 7.  Both sessions will include a CCBC exhibit of some of the best 2011 books for young readers.

Most folks choose to attend one session or the other, but you certainly won't be turned away if you decide to stay overnight and come to both

The registration form is available at www.rhinelander.org. 

PLEASE NOTE that separate registration (sent to two separate places) is required for the evening and day sessions.

All registrations must be received no later than March 2.  Payment of $10.00 per person must accompany each registration blank. No purchase orders, please.
