She was a class act! And was so gracious with connecting and communicating with students. Her books remain some of my all time favorites. ❤️
Oh, no! I never met Peg Kehret, but I adored her from afar. Her book SMALL STEPS: THE YEAR I GOT POLIO was one of my favorites as was ANIMALS WELCOME. And, she wrote so many more. I highly encourage you to check them out and share with a child. #megakidlit #booksky

This fantasy novel feels relevant to today, and has so much to love. Friendship, adventure, humor, culture and mythology all weave together into a fantastic story. #bookposse 📚👍🏻
