1 in 6 kids under 18 in @foodbankcenc service area experience food insecurity. You can help raise meals this summer by donating before July 31st and your gift could have twice the impact! StopSummerHunger.org

For kids and families experiencing food insecurity, summer vacation can be anything but a break. Not being in school means missing out on 1, maybe 2, meals. Help us raise meals this summer, visit: StopSummerHunger.org

Aren't bookmarks fun? Thanks to everyone who requested these HAZARD bookmarks--I'm still in the process of getting them all sent out! And thanks to @CnNjhs1 and all the fab #bookposse peeps for ... well, *everything* you all do!
Thank you so much @FrancesDowell - my kids will love these tomorrow on library check out day!!! #bookposse
I love this photo of Hazard in the middle of a cornucopia of delights! Beautiful! #bookposse
If you have students who want to discuss HAZARD with me, get in touch! I'm happy to do 30-minute Zooms/Skypes--and I do 'em for free if the kids have read the book!

You’ll love Hazard and his story, Cindy! SO much for the kids to discuss! They really get into Hazard, his feelings & his choices. They root for him. 🥰📚💜
Well, this just made my day! Thanks, @TheLitAdvocate and the #BookPosse readers! You guys are the best! ❤️❤️❤️🥳
HAZARD is headed your way, @yvettecoughlin1! This #BookPosse favorite touched my 💜 as I accompanied Hazard on his journey from anger to family, forgiveness, healing and, ultimately, love. A powerful character-driven story. Loved it! 🥰👏 @FrancesDowell @SimonKIDS @SSEdLib #mglit
Thanks, @TheLitAdvocate, for this lovely mini-review of HAZARD! 😍
HAZARD is full of pathos, with a very relatable protagonist. You can’t help but root for Hazard, every step of his journey. Your students will have plenty to talk about, think about, and root for. 🥰📚💜 @FrancesDowell @SimonKIDS @SSEdLib
So excited to see this fabulous book out in the world! #bookbirthday #mglit #dogstory #childrensbooks

Just got this and love it so much! @SophieBlackall is a genius. As a lover of old farm houses and old things, especially, ephemera, this one was right up my alley!

Over on Insta, we're doing #ghostyquilts. Thought I'd do it here too. P.S. Yes, that's me. Yes, I made the quilt. It's called an orange peel and it was superfun to do. #amwriting #amquilting #mgauthorswhoquilt #anyone?
Thanks for all the requests--keep 'em coming!
#teachers! #librarians! I've got HAZARD bookmarks! Leave a comment below if you want a few (or 50 or more--I've got lots)! I'll DM you to get your deets

Halfway through this one & am completely engrossed! I love reading how Robyn navigates her 6th new school. Check out her list of 10 Rules For New Kids! This one has a Book Birthday coming up Tuesday 10/25! @FinneganBegin @SimonKIDS @blueslipper #BookPosse
