The Associates of the Boston Public Library is pleased to invite you to the fifteenth annual Literary Lights for Children tea party on Sunday, September 29th in the Boston Public Library's beautiful Bates Hall. The 2013 honorees are:

Literary Lights for Children seeks to raise awareness of children's literature, promote literacy, honor children's authors, and raise funds for the Boston Public Library's Special Collections. Students selected from Boston area schools will introduce and present the awards to each of the honored authors. The honorees will then discuss their writing careers and share their love of books with the audience of 350 children and adults. Tea refreshments will be served. Immediately following the tea party, there will be a book signing session. Books will be available for sale, or children are welcome to bring their own books.

We anticipate that this event will sell out quickly again this year. Tickets will go on sale on Monday August 12th. Please check back here to purchase tickets. If you would like to request a hard-copy invitation, please contact Erin at elinn@bpl.org.
