Thank you, Skano & Tesago Schools!

I had a great day of author visits with the students of Tesago and Skano Elementary Schols in Clifton Park, NY last week. It’s always so great to walk into a school where reading and writing are valued, and it shows from the moment you arrive. These kids were so enthusiastic, and they had such smart, thoughtful questions for me.

After my morning presentation, I spent a couple hours signing books in the library (these kids LOVE their books!)  While I was signing, some students came in with a poster for me to sign.

The students brainstormed this list in their classroom right after my presentation and told me their teacher was going to keep it on the classroom wall to remind everyone of the habits of writers. I thought that was such a great idea and a wonderful way to make the most of an author visit.

Many, many thanks to the students and staff at Tesago and Skano Elementary Schools. I had a great day with your readers!
