Need your help, BookTwitter. I'm running a National Year of Reading event for to 14-18 yr olds. Name one book that at around that age lit up your imagination. Audiobooks, graphic novels, short stories - all welcome. Stories that will set them on fire and make them want to read. I'm looking for books to rave about for the simple joy of reading, so not really the classics that they might be asked to read as past of the syllabus. Go...
Don’t miss out!
Read Your World Online Auction is LIVE! We have tons of signed books and book packages that make great end of year gifts for teachers! buff.ly/3bostVP via @pragmaticmom @MCChildsBookDay #ReadYourWorld #onlineauction #books #KidLit #educators
This sounds SUPER!
I loved teaching the Picture Book Humor Lab but if I’m honest…
It’s tough for me to do LIVE sessions right now. And that’s okay.
So I crafted the Kidlit Haha Laugh & Draft.
More affordable (only $21)
Less time commitment (3 days)
Same vibes 👇
