@fuse8.bsky.social Hi Betsy! I’m trying to put together a Mock Geisel list but I am stuck this year! Do you have any suggestions or posts where you’ve talked about possibilities for this year?

Have to shout about this nonfiction book that publishes May 27 - not only did I learn a lot about how sand moves across our world and affects it, but the illustrations 😍🔥 @rhcbschoollibrary.bsky.social

This is a must add to your classroom library! I love that our main character takes control of her own narrative, stopping the stories about her clothing so she can say her truth. Important representation of disability in kidlit! @kdmaz.bsky.social @ssedlib.bsky.social

We had an amazing author visit with creator Alex Willan last week. The students were so excited to meet Gilbert and see who the next magical creature he was meeting (its mermaids!). The kids also loved learning how to draw Gilbert. TY Alex for the visit! #authorvisit #edusky @ssedlib.bsky.social

Adding this middle grade GN to my collection immediately. The dog love, the skateboarding, not feeling like you fit in… this is going to resonate with a lot of readers! #edusky #booksky #kidsbooks

So grateful author @saraharonson.bsky.social spoke with our students to help them make author-writer connections. Sarah is the best!!

What my second graders are reading (and again, just the book jackets since the readers have the books)! These are all books I’ve used as read alouds. Remember, when you share the book, they will want to read it! #picturebooks #edusky #kidsbooks #secondgrade #booksky

Borrowed the idea from @hansonhallway.bsky.social and my 3rd and 4th reading intervention students thought about their “Readolutions” for the year. I was so impressed with the way they thought intentionally about their goals and what to work on concerning reading. #studentgoals #readinggoals

I finished this middle grade novel last week and I haven’t stopped thinking about it. I laughed. I cried - sometimes on the same page. These characters will be with me for a long long time.
