See you there!
I heard you read a part of this at the National Book Festival. I know many young readers who will love this series.
We hope to see you at NCTE, if the airlines cooperate. @lereece11.bsky.social @ncte.org @stenhousepub.bsky.social @candersonwriting.bsky.social @whitneylarocca.bsky.social

Teachers, librarians, children's authors, I highly recommend this documentary. When books are attacked, it is really the children who are being attacked. The First Amendment is being attacked.

Iβm going to use that next time!
An appropriate response!
It was very funny. Another child leaned over to me and whispered, βThatβs a meme. Do you know what that is?β
Good point!
How do you respond when you ask a child to tell you about how they feel about reading and their response is: β6 7.β

Wonderful news!
What are you favorite laugh-out-loud books to start the school year? @ncte.org @heinemannpub.bsky.social @stenhousepub.bsky.social #kidlit
Of course it will be wondrous! It always is.
As you decide what books to read to start the school year, remember that there are many ways to build community. Interactive nonfiction books allow all students to chime in and feel welcome. @stenhousepub.bsky.social @heinemannpub.bsky.social @ncte.org #kidlit #backtoschool
πSAVE THE DATE! Our Fall 2025 Gathering online K-12 Literacy Conference is Saturday, September 20.

Congratulations! A wonderful group of educators.

Thank you! I will.
Thank you, Kate. That is very helpful. There were so many different numbers I found when researching this.

Wonderful picture book authors, how many words is a typical fiction picture book? Any and all advice is welcome for this reading teacher working on her first picture book. Thank you!
