Recently, I visited young authors at a local school and got the chance to hear some of their stories. WOW! I was amazed by their talent. It's only a matter of time before their books start popping up on library shelves.
It was also beyond awesome to see how much the school appreciates its creative students. Every author (and illustrator!) is celebrated with charisma and encouragement. No doubt it means the world to them!

Today marked the 32nd annual Children's Book Fair in Chicago, where readers of all ages came to celebrate stories. It was beyond inspiring! I signed copies of two titles from ELLIE ULTRA and met so many fans of our super girl. The books were graciously sponsored by generous local businesses.
Hugs go out to Ellie's readers, plus my heartfelt appreciation to those who give kids the power to read! Back in April, the Cleveland Cavaliers used MOVE YOUR BODY!: MY EXERCISE TIPS for an exciting event at Spring Hill Elementary School. More details from the NBA are HERE, plus lots of cool photos of the festivities. (Sneak a peek at some of the photos below.) Go bookworms and the Cavaliers! Author visits give me the awesome opportunity to meet fans of my books. But I also get to see them out and about on social media. Readers, thank you for sharing your photos AND superstar smiles!
