WHAT ARE THE KIDDOS READING?

6 Years Ago Today…

Six years ago, I started posting my book reviews online as a way of sharing the stories that I fell in love with and that shaped the person that I am today. I still love meeting new book lovers, discovering new titles, and making new memories. I’m super excited to be exploring new and creative ways of sharing my love of reading and teaching with a brand-new audience. Onward!

Here’s to another six years! Keep reading and always, always, always reach for that dusty jacket.
