2010 National Ambassador of Young People's Literature appointed
I'm thrilled to hear that Katherine Patterson, one of my favorite writers, and author of Bridge to Terabithia, has been named the new National Ambassador of Young People's Literature by The Library of Congress in the US. I sure wish that Canada would follow their lead since kids who read tend to grow into adults who read. If you haven't read anything by Katherine Paterson, now's a good time to start. She's a powerhouse. You can pick up her books at any library, or better yet, support her by buying one of her many titles.
