Kylene Beers Do you mean July 23 and 24th?

Thanks to Jennifer Merrifield for catching my big mistake when I wrote June 23 and 24 when I meant July 23 and 24. This is new signpost called the "Oh Sh#t" signpost. Not much instruction needed for it!



I am surprised and honored to receive this award from National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE). A lifetime of getting to do what you love is its own reward. This is the topping on the cake.

I've put this on my calendar and can't wait to hear what Deborah Appleman has to say about academic freedom in this time of unprecedented book censorship.








When AJ Brown started reading, I started yelling at hubby, "Take his picture!!!" Thanks to AJ for showing kids that players are readers and readers are leaders. And thanks to Philadelphia Eagles for letting your players read when and where they choose. This Texan says, "Go Eagles!"
