I finally got around to posting the photos from my visit to the Joliet School District for their 2010 Reading Week. You can see the photos on my News page.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting two Joliet, IL schools: Forest Park Individualized Education School and Parks Cultural Academy. I hope to post some photos on my News page soon. If you have any questions or comments about my presentations, feel free to post them below. They won't show up here until I have read them, but I'll reply as soon as I am able.  Read More 

Today I visited Union Ridge Elementary School in Harwood Heights, IL. If you attended one of my presentations, I'd love to have your comments here. I shared a bit about the visit at the Teaching Authors blog. You can read the entry here. I'll try to post some pictures as soon as I can. Read More
