I was pleased to attend and report on the first year event: Palmetto Bay Branch Library (MDPLS) invites you to celebrate the International Edible Book Festival  Click

The teen club, Bookbusters, inspired this event.

Inspiration can be a favorite book, author, title, cover art or character (comics and manga are allowed, too), anything having to do with books, but each entry must be made of edible materials. Those entering must be between the ages of 10 and 18.

All creations must be brought to the Palmetto Bay Branch Library on March 24 between the hours of 12:30 and 1:30 p.m.  Please note that no late entries will be accepted. The judging and photography will take place between 2 and 3 p.m.
