On April 10, Cameron Goes to School author Sheletta Brundidge will host a free luncheon for Minnesota's librarians.

Librarians will receive a free copy of Cameron Goes to School at the luncheon. Brundidge is also donating books to school libraries all over Minnesota. Read more about Free Luncheon for Librarians Featuring 'Cameron Goes to School' Author
