Read Across America
Celebrating Read Across America with these 4th graders was so heartwarming! Everything was going very well as I read the first chapter of
@rickriordan.bsky.social’s
DAUGHTER OF THE DEEP and the classroom filled with cheers when they received their very own copy! Books have the power to change lives!
Happy World Book Day! It's also Read Across America Week, and I'm spending my time reading stories aloud to classrooms full of happy, inquisitive kids!

It's been a busy day for the Sacramento Kings, as they've signed two former first round picks: Killian Hayes and Patrick Baldwin Jr.
The two signings are low-risk, high reward for a team riding a 16-game losing streak.

The Purim holiday has always been tied to books for me. I remember my mom reading festive & sweet picture books to me when I was little & now I’m excited to pass that on. I’ve put together a list of many my favorite Purim stories that capture the joy, the costumes, and the tradition of the holiday.
It was an honor to shadow Sacramento Public Library Director & CEO @petercoyl.bsky.social! We talked about everything from how the library receives its funding to its rich history & some exciting upcoming projects. Today’s visit reminded me how important libraries are. Let’s keep celebrating them!

Here are my thoughts on NESHAMA, the beautiful Sydney Taylor Book Award-Winning #MGLit by @marcellapixley.bsky.social.
NESHAMA, a Hebrew word meaning soul, is rooted in Jewish spirituality & the perfect title for this deeply powerful story.
