Pre-Bluesky visit to Iowa Center for the Book should’ve been in this photo dump! Ten Beautiful Things is the Library of Congress Great Read for Iowa, so I got to read to LOTS of kids at the Ames Public Library. That one is on YouTube if you want to watch it!

School visits and presentations and storytimes, oh my! Nearing the end of my long list of events for the season. Grateful to all these kids and families and teachers for reading with me and equally grateful for my impending hibernation.

Sometimes one kid shows up for storytime and it really is “just us!” What do we do? We adapt the plan and have fun anyway. Signed copies in stock at Zenith in Duluth and Back Forty Books in Two Harbors for all your cozy cabin reading needs. ❤️❄️📚
