I have been attending the National Council of Teachers of English Annual Convention for at least ten years & I’m excited to be bringing #ClassroomBookADay back again through a roundtable session + #BuildYourStack mini book talk in the exhibit hall next week.
I am so excited to get to hear from these amazing picture book authors & illustrators!
Traci Sorell + Arigon Starr – Contenders: Two Native Baseball Players, One World Series
Tami Charles + Bryan Collier – We Are Here
Carole Boston Weatherford + Frank Morrison – Standing in the Need of Prayer
Ashlee Latimer + her editor – Francis Discovers Possible
Christina Soontornvat + Dow Phumiruk – A Life of Service: The Story of Senator Tammy Duckworth
Joanna Ho – Eyes That Speak to the Stars
I can’t wait to be back in person again after two years of virtual, though I’m sure it will be weird since we’re still in the midst of all kinds of things, but I just know being able to see my people in person again is just what I need.
If you’ll be there, please look for these sessions. And if you’re a #ClassroomBookADay-er, please say hi if you see me around!
