I am looking forward to seeing fellow educators, authors, and lit lovers at the 2016 International Literacy Association Conference.
I will be on an engaging panel moderated by kidlit rock star Judy Freeman with authors Erica Perl and Tom Greenwald to show and tell how we use theater techniques in our middle grade fiction. Entertainment and education on one stage, plus lots of resources for educators to bring into the classroom.
Here’s my schedule. Come by and say hello!
