@Meg_Medina Thanks for having the courage to let so many of us eavesdrop on that conversation! It was cool - and super helpful -- to see her analysis and hear her recs. (And now to see you implementing them too!)

[Valerie Heller @Valhellah]

@lisabradleybook @monashroffwrite There's your beach read! So cool!

[Valerie Heller @Valhellah]

@Meg_Medina Yikes! Hope you are feeling (and breathing) better again soon! (There are other ways of getting those chiseled abs...) Sending healing energy your way!

[Valerie Heller @Valhellah]

So many reasons... https://t.co/3P9Xx1ltoV

When you finish a book and love it so much you have to tell the world! @alisongmyers' debut novel A Bird Will Soar is one of those. I finished it last week and my heart is still soaring! #BookTwitter #amreading

If I didn’t know better, I’d say books about racism and the lgbt folks are not the biggest threat to school kids.

[Valerie Heller @Valhellah]

As a writer for children and an educator, I find this deeply disturbing. Who will decide what books your child has access to?
