Kids across the country are invited to make a movie to submit to the 90-Second Newbery Film Festival, a fun, annual national video contest in which kid filmmakers create short movies that tell the entire stories of Newbery-winning books in about 90 seconds. Creative twists are encouraged! These kid-made movies are featured at live screenings all over the country attended by hundreds—in New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, San Antonio, Rochester, and many other cities! These free events combine screenings of the movies with live Newbery-themed entertainment, co-hosted by festival Founder James Kennedy, author of YA book The Order of Odd-Fish and other books, and a local author who writes kids' or young adult books.

Tis the season for an awesome camp! During this camp, students will learn about engineering, circuitry and design while building gingerbread houses and holiday cards using LEDS and circuit boards!
