I attended this wonderful Book Festival in 2005 when I was an English teacher in Northern Virginia. My co-worker/friend and I listened to Meg Cabot and Sharon Creech give delightful presentations. Meg Cabot was hysterical. We were also able to get signatures from Meg Cabot. (P.S. This was before I read Ready or Not (worst. book. ever.) and when all I knew of her was The Princess Diaries and All-American Girl.)

Have you been before? Will you go this year? I'm soooo excited to hear Suzanne Collins speak!
