I am several celebratory mimosas in and made myself the Four Seasons Total Landscaping shirt I desperately wanted in my life. If you want it too, I'm tossing all profits to the Georgia runoffs. https://t.co/hK7mvcLr1I

Finally working my way through my MG TBR pile and adding my mini-reviews! This is a mysterious gem of a book #Eventown by @coreyannhaydu - has a stepford-ish feel: opening with a hinted-at… https://t.co/LY30GIUxtG

Calling all spies! @AuthorStuGibbs, @bvam,
and I are going to write a spy story on the spot, improv style, with you picking the elements for us! It's being run by the @IntlSpyMuseum (how cool is that?) and it's free, but you have to register. https://t.co/romPdUfG4L @SimonKIDS

No words and feeling helpless, so just donated to these three organizations I know are doing good and hoping that it can help to heal our world during these dark and difficult times.… https://t.co/KgYe5Ej5LP

Conflict resolution via chalk art. I sent them outside to play badminton and came out to see a chalk rendition of the calamitous sibling fight that ensued...when great rage becomes great art. https://t.co/E4YeYlaoTN

@JBurtBooks @NetGalley @MrSchuReads @colbysharp I just mentioned the buzz about this book to a 6th grade reader!! Dystopian novels are weirdly comforting right now.... will keep an eye on NetGalley - lots of love for Jake Burt’s book at my school library. Can’t wait to read and recommend to my students!

@JamiesonV @Dantey114Mo @PenguinClass @penguinkids @RodeenLiterary Just watched it - what an inspiring message and story and I loved how you showed us the process of how a graphic novel comes to life, from scribbles to the fully-inked pages!

[Evelyn @evekschwartz]

@JamiesonV @Dantey114Mo @PenguinClass @penguinkids @RodeenLiterary Can’t wait!!! We were hoping to attend your event at @PoliticsProse but since we are all on virtual learning, the virtual event could work even better! We love your books here @HoltonLibrary!

Wheeee!!!! Just recommended The One and Only Ivan as an all-school read-aloud, in anticipation of this book coming out!! (And the movie of course)...

@PenguinClass @JamiesonV @Dantey114Mo Can’t wait to read it! we can’t keep Roller Girl and All’s Faire on our shelves at our school library. My students also love books that cover realistic, inspirational stories in a sympathetic, nuanced way - am sure this will have them thirsting for more! #lookingforwardtoapril

@stacymcanulty So excited you have a new book out!!! My students are going to be thrilled! Scary = not being able to read.... (spoken like a librarian....)

Was hooked on the magical realism aspect of this book - Red’s control over the weather (or perhaps lack thereof) causes storms and tornadoes whenever she is feeling emotional and upset - which given the fact that… https://t.co/es09gr5ccp

Best mornings = kaya toast, a breezy outdoor cafe and a new #JakeBurt novel #TheTornado (out October 2019) to dig my teeth into! I absolutely loved GREETINGS FROM WITNESS PROTECTION so was thrilled to pick up this… https://t.co/gMFCZH9Die
