For kids ages 9 and up. Have you ever wondered where writers get their ideas for a book…and how a book becomes a movie? Holly Black will read from her series, The Spiderwick Chronicles and talk about making the movie. We’ll view clips from the movie, hear about some of the new books Holly is working on, and ponder the question “Are faeries real?” http://blackholly.com/ ********************************************
