If you have a love for children's stories or children's literature or rhyming stories, I hope you know about the wonderful Mary Ann Hoberman.
What an inspiration to the rest of us.
RIP

I used to stare as a child at this photo of my great aunts and their children who survived Holodomor. Now the great-grandson of one of the great aunts sends me video of air raid sirens in Ukraine. Thank you @nytimesbooks for facing history and sharing 🇺🇦 stories. @MacKidsBooks

With ties to the current geopolitical landscape, THE LOST YEAR by @MarshKatherine is the perfect classroom book club read. Our Teacher’s Guide includes a glossary of historical terms, discussion questions, activities, and more!

Do you recognize this bus from 2018 for Paddington Comes to America? It was designed to resemble a London double-decker bus. With a few modifications and a new coat of paint, it now will have new life as Christian Robinson’s bus from Last Stop on Market Street. Opens in 3 days!

WHAT MORE DO I WANT TO KNOW?
That's what I tell kids to ask themselves as they finish one of my books or articles. Everything they read can be part of an ongoing journey of discovery, with you teachers and librarians there to help guide them.
