Deerwood ES in Humble Tx and Raisinwood ES in Monroe MI. Such great questions from students about the real history behind Winterkill and the real people I based my characters on.
One of my favorite things in the whole wide world is visiting with kids who have read my books! This was such an enjoyable visit with students and educators from Waukon MS. Thank you Ms Snitker, for putting together this video and sharing these great photos. Thank you Scholastic Book Fairs for organizing!
These pics from the other side of the screen are ever so much better than mine! I enjoyed the great questions and enthusiasm of Hurffville students during yesterday’s Scholastic Book Fair visit as we talked about Winterkill, the Holodomor and the current war that Russia is inflicting upon Ukraine.
It was wonderful to speak with schools in Georgia and Arkansas this week, facilitated by Scholastic Book Fairs. Such great questions! I even got to explain how to use a library’s vast database of online resources as a research tool during a lockdown! Ha!
It was fun chatting with students about Stolen Girl, Making Bombs for Hitler and The War Below! I spoke with students from River Crest Elementary in Hudson WI, Wisconier Middle School in Brookfield CT and Trion Middle School in GA. Thanks, Scholastic Book Fairs for arranging this!
