Discovering the Newness of Older Books - Virtual
Description
In today’s breakneck publishing model, books go out of print almost as fast as they are published. That not only creates a glut of often poor-quality material for educators to wade through, it promotes an environment in which quality books are often overlooked and forgotten. In this year’s keynote, Montana author Sneed B. Collard III discusses the value of older books, and surveys both his older and newer “greatest hits”—including his 2024 Orbis Pictus Award winner, Border Crossings and his newest picture book, Like No Other: Earth’s Coolest One-of-a-Kind Creatures.
