My thanks to the one and only @mrschureads.bsky.social for today's cover reveal and interview!

The first class novel I read with my sixth graders is @kaaauthor.bsky.social’s WISHTREE. I can’t wait to recommend this as a follow up @netgalley.bsky.social

A July well spent 📚

I loved The Trouble with Heroes!

I love the History Smashers series! The Titanic one is definitely popular with my readers

The First State of Being

"Living 'in the moment' has always been difficult for me too. That’s one of the reasons I wrote the book. To teach myself how. —Newbery Medalist @erinentrada.bsky.social www.hbook.com/story/2025-n...

Four book covers: Disappearance at Devil’s Rock, The Titan’s Curse, The First State of Being, and All the Sinners Bleed

Wasn’t until I got home from the library book sale that I realized my name was already stamped on one of the books I bought… I love that my students are donating books to the town library. I just wish it wasn’t my classroom library books 😐
