AUTHORS VISIT HOGG

  • Hogg M.S. Loves Authors! We love meeting authors at author conferences and hosting author events. Check out our Field Trips page on the left to see where we have been this year. These events get kids excited about reading and gives them a glimpse into the world of writing. We have hosted many brilliant authors of children's and young adult literature, from Soman Chainani to Newbery Award Winner Kwame Alexander.

    For additional questions, email our wonderful librarian, Ms. Chance, at mchance@houstonisd.org for more information.  Sign up to volunteer on the Library main page to help us host our next author!

     

    Thank you to Blue Willow Bookshop for their work in the greater Houston area. They work tirelessly to bring authors and kids together!
