I felt like royalty at this castle-themed school library on World Read Aloud Day! There was even a Knight in Shining Armor present! Thank you to the school’s wonderful librarian, kindergarteners and first graders. They were so attentive and asked great questions during the Q&A. 
What a wonderful day visiting in five classrooms at the Benjamin Franklin Classical Charter Public School in my hometown of Franklin, MA! The students did a great job helping me tell the story of The Princess and the Cafe on the Moat. Thanks, Heather Zolnowski, head of school, and Karen LaPlaca, reading specialist! 
Happy 20th Anniversary to Sleeping Bear Press from me, Ms. Kitoski’s third-grade class, and Ms. Gilman’s ELL students at the Clifford Marshall Elementary School in Quincy, MA. The kids were delighted to receive all the books you sent. Thanks to the young actors who helped me share the story of The Princess and the Cafe on the Moat with their super classmates. 
It was fun being in third grade again at the Jefferson Elementary School in Franklin, MA. These characters helped present The Princess and the Cafe on the Moat reader’s theater-style. Thanks for inviting me, Mr. Chelman! Your students did a fabulous job!
