Have you heard? I bet you did -- November is Picture Book Month! As you can see from the calendar below, every day brings a new essay by an author or illustrator on the importance of picture books.

There's more too. Be sure to check out Picture Book Month at the Horn Book, where you'll find a new article about picture books every Thursday. The first, Absorbing Pictures and What They Say written by Barbara Bader is already up.
And don't forget PiBoIdMo - Picture Book Idea Month! Created and hosted by author Tara Lazar on her blog in 2009, it continues to grow and grow! Great guest posts, great prizes and a whole month to help you come up with ideas for picture books. What's not to like?
Thank you for participating! November is Picture Book Month. Read * Share * Celebrate!
