Heartbroken. 💔 I only got to meet Matthew a handful of times, but he was always sharp and kind. He was, and I use this term rarely, a genius. Chandler was one of the all-time great characters and his ability to spin a slightly funny line into absolute comedy gold was…
Thank you to my Kindergarteners for coming up with such great Halloween costume suggestions for their teacher! 🥰 Kindergarten ideas included: Pizza, Lightning McQueen, a Rainbow, and a Starbucks Pink Drink!
I'm so sad to hear that Eve Bunting died. Her books are favorites of our family - especially Night Tree - and I shared many of her other titles in my 7th grade classroom. As a writer, I learned so much from her, especially when it comes to respecting young readers with big ideas.
