Need 'em,        Got 'em,       Read 'em

Do you collect hockey cards? Baseball cards? Have you ever thought about collecting cards of your favourite writers?

Author Cards is a series of 100 collectible cards, each one featuring a kids' author or illustrator. Some of the authors write for children younger than you, while others might be very familiar to you.

The back of each card contains "stats" and personal info, just like a sports card does. Pretty cool stuff!
The series is new and, for now, there are only two Canadian writers with cards - Robert Munsch and Sheldon Oberman.
