When dragons read

Hi everyone,

PIRATES READ/WORLD READ ALOUD DAY, a K-8 event that features authors reading to students and answering questions will be held this coming Monday, February 1. It’s a Zoom event and I’ll be greeting my assigned students from Florida with this curtain behind me.

PIRATES READ is created by Park University in Parkville, Missouri, not far from Kansas City. I’m glad to be invited back to the event, now in it’s third year, by director, KATHY HOWE.

Hi everyone,

This will be an interesting week, or at least Wednesday will. That morning I’ll join eleven other children’s authors for a virtual literature festival hosted by Park University in Parkville, Missouri, not far from Kansas City. The event is called “Pirates Read.” Too bad I didn’t think to pack a copy of PIRATES.

Wednesday afternoon I’ll meet by Zoom with LAURA ROBB, TIM RASINSKI, and our editor at Teacher Created Material, CATHY HERNANDEZ, for a creative meeting about the book we’re doing.

Otherwise, you’ll find me in the cage if you need me.
