It’s so good to be back among the children, librarians, and teachers after a long slow-down during these Covid times. All last week, I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with thousands of children at the Eagle, Slingerlands, Elsmere, and Hamagrael schools in Bethlehem, Albany, New York.

Much thanks to Monica Parmenter, Krissy Welliver, Jaimee Meyer, and Cailie Hafener - librarians extraordinaire, one and all - for making the visits totally successful, memorable, and so much fun!
