We hope to see you at NCTE, if the airlines cooperate. @lereece11.bsky.social @ncte.org @stenhousepub.bsky.social @candersonwriting.bsky.social @whitneylarocca.bsky.social #NCTE2025

Things I’ve learned while fostering Atticus: he’s the BEST book buddy. He will sit next to you while you read… As long as you give him kisses every few minutes #playersforpits #foster #read #millicentquib

On Wednesdays, we make giant paper airplanes!

I hosted an Onyx Storm party where we all sat around and read quietly. Also- my foster dog was Tairn. #fourthwing #booknerd #onyxstorm #ironflame

In case you want to hear something fun, my foster dog brought me a bag of treats from the end table. Dropped them at my feet. Why yes, I will give you treats! #weratedogs

On -18 degree days, we make graphic novels!

“They reread books.” What an interesting insight into what students value in reading mentors! I used to reread books regularly but haven’t reread a book (not including read alouds) in years! @trustingreaders.bsky.social

This teacher's lawsuit cites "her sincerely held moral and religious beliefs that all children, including children who are LGBTQ+... deserve to be respected, accepted, & loved for who they are." Amen. Again and again. www.nbc4i.com/news/local-n...

This is my foster dog. Available through Players for Pits in Illinois. I cannot stop laughing! #adoptme #pitbulls #fosterdog

@georgejreije.bsky.social found your doppelgänger! Had a hard time focusing during your NCTE presentation because I kept thinking you both looked alike!

I love this picture that I got from a student’s mom. You ever have a book impact you so much that you literally tape it shut? #booksky #reading

So long #NCTE2024! I hope we meet again next year!! Side note- why did I wait so long to read this???

WHAT! Started my morning crying and inspired. #ncte2024 #katemckinnon

Thanks for letting me talk about my passion!!! @trustingreaders.bsky.social #NCTE2024

Combining my two favorites: books and dogs!
