The New England Round Table of Children's Librarians (NERTCL) is proud to announce its spring workshop on "The Art of the Book."
  It will be held on Friday, March 21, at the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, MA. To explore the many facets of the making of illustrated books, we have assembled the following distinguished speakers: Vera B. Williams, author and illustrator of many beloved classics, including the Caldecott Honor-winning "A Chair for My Mother," and 2001's innovative "Amber Was Brave, Essie Was Smart;" Carol Goldenberg, formerly art director at Clarion and Houghton Mifflin Books, and designer of 2001's Caldecott Award-winning "The Three Pigs;" and Will Eisner, for 60 years a pioneer in the field of comics and graphic novels, and author of "Comics and Sequential Art." For more information and to register, go to the NERTCL website at http://www.nelib.org/nertcl/#1
 -- space is limited to 130 participants, so register early!
