Projecting the book let children in the back of the classroom see, too.
To be alliterative about it, Brown Elementary School in Somerville, MA had a lovely Literacy Night on January 24th–guest readers (including the mayor of Somerville), authors and illustrators, excited children, obviously dedicated teachers, enthusiastic parents…I had a great time reading my story about Mortimer the koala–who thinks eating cauliflower brings him bad luck the next day–explaining my writing process, and answering lots of questions! Holding the event in the evening was brilliant…it meant whole families could get involved and experience the joy of reading.
Literacy Night had a book sale that included my picture books and chapter books.
