When a pirate curse from the past threatens NASA’s future, a code-cracking kid with OCD—and his gutsy twin sister—time hop to 1719 to hijack a coded treasure map, outwit a cutthroat captain, and unravel a complex cipher… before his astronaut dreams go KABOOM. #questpit #MG #Q

@MadelynKnecht Oh, Madelyn. I feel for you so much. We just went through this last month with our sweet girl. I send hugs and comfort to you.

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@MadelynKnecht Yes! I just wrote the book I needed when I was a kid. It’s honest, authentic, and I hope it does find the shelves of school libraries soon…

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier It works!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@oseyizackwrites Form. But maybe a more in-depth form than usual?

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@vickyweberbooks Ugh. For someone who finally followed my heart and took the plunge to explore this career, I will admit to feeling a bit disheartened, especially as a kidlit author. Fingers crossed for the economy to pick up! Thanks, Vicki!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier But so many new, fun reads, right?!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@vickyweberbooks Massively overwheming, I'm sure. And then it trickles down...

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@AmyNielsen06 So nice!!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier I'm in the middle of that right now, too! Some days I don't notice. Other days I smell him before I see him!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@AmyNielsen06 I bet they do. With the unpublished manuscripts, it’s like the kids are getting a sneak peak/listen to something that everyone else hasn’t. How fun!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@BetJett Will do! Sending prayers, juju, and everything healing his way

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@vickyweberbooks We did Disney when our twins were 5.5. The things that saved us in lines… snacks, iSpy, 20 questions, more snacks, Mad Libs, and books!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier Yes! Ski mountaineering. You definitely need to check it out. Apparently it’s been part of the World Cup circuit in Europe for a while, but brand new at the Olympics. Super fun! I hope they keep it.

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier Okay… so what do you make of skimo? Watched it tonight for the first time… BIG FAN!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@AmyNielsen06 They are adorable!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@AmyNielsen06 Sending all the best well-wishes, good juju, and calming vibes to Tova!

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

This is the cutest

A duck chose a school as home & returns every year to lay her eggs. When they hatch she leads the ducklings through the corridors to the courtyard lake. It’s now an annual ritual with children staying silent out of respect. Respect is beautiful.

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@MadelynKnecht Sure! Always curious.

[Allison P Lee @apleewrites]

@ElisaSaphier Samsies! Every race is so close and exciting. And they have team cross too, which I found out last night. Big fan!
