This is cool! Thanks!

This sounds great! I'm in.

I am so excited to read READY TO SMILE AGAIN by @KatieLeeReinert! This is exactly what my family needs right now. I can’t wait to add it to our library. @GnomeRoadPub, please let me know when I can pre-order.

It is official, I entered! The real question is: did anyone else read through their form 27 times before they clicked submit? 🤣

If you know a kid who is struggling with reading and thinks poop is funny, grab this book! The animals are having a contest to see who has the best poop. The text has rhymes, strong vocabulary, and will elicit giggles. Fun! #kidlit @pubspotlight

My 9 year old is researching ways to increase reading for his Lego League team project. What incentives or ideas have you found to be successful? (Other than fabulous authors of course!) Any ideas that connect Reading to the Metaverse? #TCEA #kidlit #libraries #edTech
