Texas Bluebonnet Award Winner 2009

This week was the TLA Convention in Houston.  The TBA Banquet was Thursday and the TBA was presented to author, Cynthia DeFelice and illustrator, Andrea U'Ren. The event is the highlight of the conference with Texas students presenting them with the award!  As a member of the TBA  Committee, I had the pleasure of meeting these two amazing ladies. We presented them with a James Avery Texas necklace. They were so warm and gracious. The students and the librarians fell in love with them. I'm thankful to be a small part of this award and event.
