The 7th annual festival on the campus of the
University of Michigan-Dearborn is a celebration
of writing for students in grades 3-5, their parents
and teachers. The program begins with a presentation
by guest author Jean Alicia Elster followed by a series
of breakout sessions for youth to sharpen their reading
and writing skills and for adults to pick up tips on
supporting their children’s literacy development.
The festival wraps up with the Writing Contest
Awards Ceremony and a book signing by Elster,
whose books will be available for purchase on site.
