Authors' Circle

The Book Harvest Authors’ Circle is a group of authors who believe passionately in the power of books to make a difference in children’s lives. These talented writers serve as a resource to Book Harvest, providing guidance and leadership as needed, and joining the organization at events to promote our mission and vision.  We thank each of these remarkable authors for sharing our dream of books for all children!
