Website Review-

I chose to evaluate The Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators' website: https://www.scbwi.org

This website is an international professional organization for authors and illustrators of books for children and young adults. I thought this organization was very cool because they are a nonprofit organization and the only professional organization specifically created for individuals who write, illustrate, and translate for children and young adults. Their mission is to support the creation and availability of quality children’s books all around the world. They hold conferences, annual events, and digital workshops for anyone and everyone interested in children's literature.

SCBWI publishes a monthly newsletter, Insight, that features current children’s book hot topics, helpful hints, interviews, and monthly contests. One of my favorite sections of the website is the Masterclass section, where famous authors such as Tomie DePaola and Richard Peck, give you a peek into the wit, wonder, and wisdom of their creative process. All the different sections of the website are well laid out and it's easy to maneuver around and find things. 

I think this would be a great website and organization to be a part of to stay up to date on the latest happenings in children's literature.
