Who else is heading to Boston for #NCTE24 this week? Here's where I'll be on Saturday, signing books and talking about "STEAM power"Looking forward to meeting lots of teachers and fellow kidlit folks! And having a lobster roll, of course. 🐧📘👨‍🚀📙❣️

Hooray—CHASING GUANO is out today! 😊 I made "guano"-covered cupcakes to celebrate. I feel so lucky to have had the chance to write about this fascinating expedition. Many thanks to ALL who helped move this ms along over the years!
