Quail Ridge Books <http://quailridgebooks.booksense.com/>, in Raleigh, NC, has a great children's and YA department headed by Carol Moyer, the current secretary of the board of the Association of Booksellers for Children
<http://www.abfc.com/index.html>
Carol has been an amazing contact for our school. QRB runs our annual book fair and always provides a well planned event. They have also been instrumental in bringing visiting authors to our campus. The visiting author calendar at the store always includes big names in children's and YA publishing - Jon Scieszka is coming in a few weeks!

Quail Ridge Books <http://quailridgebooks.booksense.com/>, in Raleigh, NC, has a great children's and YA department headed by Carol Moyer, the current secretary of the board of the Association of Booksellers for Children
<http://www.abfc.com/index.html>
Carol has been an amazing contact for our school. QRB runs our annual book fair and always provides a well planned event. They have also been instrumental in bringing visiting authors to our campus. The visiting author calendar at the store always includes big names in children's and YA publishing - Jon Scieszka is coming in a few weeks!
