This was a pleasant surprise. Goodreads describes it as
“The action-packed true story of President Theodore Roosevelt's dangerous adventure down one of the most treacherous rivers on Earth.”
Great true adventure for teens.
My kind of book! Adding to the list.
Oh! I need to check these out!
Got my signed copy in the mail! Wahoo!

I’m enjoying Janice Barton Woods quotes:
“Now is a great time to write for 15 minutes! Small steps lead to big outcomes!
Small progress is still progress.”
#15minsprint #justwrite #kidlit
More inspiration from Janice Barton Woods:
“Oh, those pesky early drafts ... do you have 15 minutes to jot some words down today?
Have the courage to be imperfect.”
#15minsprint #justwrite #kidlit
A year ago, Janice Barton Woods wrote the following:
“You still have time to get those 15 minutes of writing done today!
Never forget how wildly capable you are.”
Still true today! Thanks Janice!

2025 Ohio North SCBWI -agent was critiquing a pitch. He liked how it ended in a question. The group gasped. How many times have you been told not to do that? Yet, he found it refreshing. Lesson learned? Do what is right for you and your story. You know what is best.
