I LOVED The First Rule of Punk by Celia C. Pérez. I think kids are going to totally fall for this book.

In this episode I interview Anchor employee Maya. We discuss some of Anchor's cool features and we talk about how educators might use it in schools.

I had a blast dressing up as Waldo for a local book event.

I can't wait to meet my new students. I recorded his episode while walking around a book store.

In this episode I book talk The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street.

I got a ton of work done in my classroom today. Much better than day 1.

School starts in 28 days!!! I had a good first day working in my classroom.

I've been thinking a lot about my students from last year, and how reading aloud helped us develop community.

I finally read a book in the I Survived series. It was amazing! Looking forward to booktalking it in the fall.

My booktalk of Cynthia Rylant and Brendan Wenzel's LIFE. This is a must read picture book.
