Summer reading season is here, and we’re busy preparing for the 39th Annual Buckeye Book Fair on November 7! In this issue, you’ll meet investigative memoirist James B. Wells, watch a fascinating conversation with mystery authors Amanda Flower, Julie Hatcher, and Patricia Sargeant, and learn how you can enter our Summer Book Escape Raffle. We’re also issuing a final call for author and illustrator submissions. If you know someone who belongs at the Buckeye Book Fair, now is the time to encourage them to apply. Thank you to our dedicated Selection Committee members who are hard at work reading this year’s submissions and helping us create another unforgettable event.

December Buckeye Bookmark
Books have a special way of bringing us together. They let us listen more closely, understand more deeply, and imagine a world that is kinder, broader, and more just. This season, we’re reminded how powerful it is to gather around stories and to honor the authors and illustrators who create them.
