What do our children think is more glorious and exciting than a birthday party?
Christmas. That's about it.
I love planning and throwing birthday parties for my own children. And I love good children authors and parties, so this idea really blew my party whistle: Semicolon Author Celebration
I've always thought it a delightful fancy to observe children authors' birthdays. I'm just not consistent enough to remember to check the dates beforehand. Lucky for me (and you) the job of party planner has been filled by blogger Semicolon who will be observing and celebrating children authors on their birthdays in a blogosphere-wide celebration! How cool is that?
All friends of children authors are invited.
The first party is already popping balloons and drinking kool-aid toasts to Charlotte Zolotow.
You can read more about her Author Celebrations here and see the schedule for upcoming Author Celebrations (all scheduled on Thursdays). This way your children can really stay connected with the authors they visit and study at Author Fiesta while celebrating with a little cake and punch to make it sweeter. :)

I just wanted to include a picture of our own family cake and celebration last night for my wonderful husband's upcoming birthday:
Happy Birthdy to your dh!
