We are so pleased to announce that our Pre-Conference Speaker will be Jane Cobb. If you work with preschool children, chances are that you're more than familiar with Jane Cobb's fantastic resource I'm a Little Teapot: Presenting Preschool Storytime. Jane Cobb's new book What'll I Do with the Baby-o? Nursery Rhymes, Songs, and Stories for Babies is sure to become a similar staple for anyone providing early literacy programming.

The Pre-Conference on Monday, April 27 will be devoted entirely to storytimes - for preschoolers, for toddlers and for babies.

So far we have three Conference speakers to look forward to.
