@NormReyn Inspiration for a future, in-person production, I think!

@NormReyn Kudos for reading as much as you did - every time I have tried, I get bogged down within the first chapter, it seems. And while it has fervent fans (if that isn't redundant), it doesn't hook me. Maybe the TED-Ed talk is the key... we'll see; you've convinced me of that much.

If you've followed Pernille in the past, please follow her new account... and if you are a MS/ US language teacher who doesn't yet find her, I highly recommend doing so.

@NormReyn It was a great show; I really enjoyed your portrayal of Albee (ALL-bee) and yourself and the way you threaded the stories together. And I really enjoyed the way you played with the medium.

@anthonychuter @bayviewglen Thanks, @anthonychuter - The whole company put a lot of work into it and it was so nice to have an in-person audience for yesterday's premiere! And how fantastic that our community can watch both casts!

Those advocating for book bans are not the only ones holding power over stories. This guide can help educators, caregivers or advocates facilitate reading groups that highlight inclusive books, engage local issues and bring generations together.
