Each year, children’s authors and illustrators are invited to the Ozarks to speak with students in grades 4 through 8.
The purpose of the Festival is to improve literacy by motivating children to read and write, and these inspirational
presentations do just that! Bring your students during the day, and encourage them to bring their families to the free
autograph party in the evening.
