Now is your chance to meet Cynthia Leitich Smith in person and thank her for all she does for the Kid Lit community.
I tried to get Cynthia to do something with the New Jersey SCBWI while she was here, but I couldn’t fit my schedule into her schedule. Candlewick is whisking her off to other states, just a little too fast. I already have her on my personal schedule to see.
Cynthia’s new novel—Blessed, the third installment in the Eternal series. Cynthia is on her way to the NY/NJ area, where the good folks at Candlewick are sending her on tour.
February can be frigid and Cynthia deserves nothing but a warm welcome—no matter how cold or snowy it is. Please feel free to share her Blessed tour dates below with Eternal fans, teens, kid-lit scholars, and writers in your area who will not want to miss New York Times best-seller Cynthia’s appearances!
