Launching a book during a pandemic = hard.

SPEAK UP touches upon things I faced as a kid & what kids face now.

My own kids helped me put this trailer together. <3 <3 If you leave a comment, it might give them a boost.

Thanks so much Nancy Churning for the LOVELY interview. It has been such a trying year, so it's a special treat to be reminded that other people (like Mary Walker) overcame great odds, too. :) @nchurnin @SCBWIMidSouth @2020visionpbs @20truePBs https://t.co/KWMbfGYiCM

Books are needed in chaotic, uncertain times, perhaps more than "normal" times. @MeegPincus writes about this in the @20truePBs blog: https://t.co/g3STjdAmHC #BooksFightIgnorance #BooksGiveUsHope

[20truePBs @20truePBs]

Parents and Educators: The 20truePBs web site has interviews with many of the #20truePBs authors and illustrators. The interviews are a great resource for learning about how to research and write nonfiction. Hope you'll stop by and take a look! https://t.co/124rRRzCOq
