Two literacy teacher educators on a mission to cultivate teachers' reading lives and transform their classroom reading communities. @AffinitoLit @DrKMcGee
I spent the morning at The Hudson Children's Literature festival.
It. WAS. AMAZING.
Table after table of amazing authors and beautiful books.
And the best part?
Every author graciously signed each one.
So, take a peek into my bag and tell me: Which book should I read first?
As a @Scholastic author, I find this so deeply upsetting. When we refuse to call racism by its name, we are lying to children. There's nothing educational or inspirational about that.
I’m honored to announce that I’m a newly-appointed member of the @librarycongress’s Literacy Awards Advisory Board. This envelope is my formal invitation from the Librarian of Congress, y’all! I’m excited to learn more about US literacy initiatives & work w/ the committee.
Season 3 is almost here and we have a surprise for you all! Check back in with us on Saturday, October 1st for the full announcement and don’t forget to catch up on seasons one and two on YouTube 👀”

#BarnesAndNoble has suddenly decided NOT to carry KEY PLAYER, the 4th FRONT DESK book, coming out in 2 weeks! Here are the new details of their new “nationwide strategy”—only giving shelf space for Top 1-2 books per publisher! I am not Top enough, apparently! 😭 #FrontDeskSeries

Very sad news: Newbery Medalist Patricia MacLachlan, author of ‘Sarah, Plain and Tall’ and many other beloved works for children, died on March 31 at age 84
It’s not hard to see that a whole lot of people who currently care about what kids read don’t appear to read much themselves. They don’t seem to understand what books do. Books provoke, heal, inspire, and educate! The power and joy of books are well-known to readers! #readingjoy
