October 30 to November 27, 2008 A celebration of writers and readers featuring 18 Canadian authors of books for children and teens!
A festival of Canadian writers and readers

In November 2008 the Oshawa Public Libraries and the Friends of the Library in partnership will present A is for Author, a month long festival of visits by popular Canadian authors of books for children and teens.

A is for Author will connect the readers of books with the writers of books, foster the strengthening of literacy skills, and showcase the wonderful literatures of childhood and young adulthood.

Each participating author will spend the day with us, some presenting at two branches, some at three. At each programme the author will speak about his or her books and the writing life, and answer questions from the audience. There will also be an opportunity to purchase books by the featured author and have them autographed.
