I love sharing stories like Rebeka’s in Her Own Two Feet. That’s what this blog is all about. My stories. Other people’s stories. Writing stories for children. Once upon a time I told the story of our family traveling around the world for nine and a half months. You can find those here at Faces in the Street.

My newsletter just went out with these book picks

My newsletter just went out with these book picks filled with different places and faces from around the world. I was inspired by the diverse group of kids I met at school visits in Richardson-so many stories I’d love to hear! I hope you love these. Link in bio to subscribe to monthly children’s book recs.

Today I did the last of 18 author visits, 18 schoo

Today I did the last of 18 author visits, 18 schools in 5 days and by the grace of God all tech worked and every group of students was unique and amazing. Seriously, Richardson ISD is incredible, so are librarians, and so is @altrusarichardson who coordinated to bring me. So thankful for people who drove me and prepared the kids. So many butterflies. So much gratitude. Murakoze.

Love this kindness quote in the Yale Elementary li

Love this kindness quote in the Yale Elementary library (my alma mater😊) and love the Kindness Libraries @altrusarichardson is gifting to schools in RISD! An author visit can look so many different ways, a library, an auditorium, so many different faces and places but no matter who or where Rebeka’s story really seems to resonate with these kids. They ask such thoughtful questions. Grateful to the librarians in their lives, and the women from Altrusa I’ve met. Loved visiting RISD Academy, Spring Valley and Yale today!

Another really great day of school visits. Thankful for all the butterflies, for @laurablatzheim my friend from high school and current amazing head of school counselors for RISD, for kids who buy and read Rebeka’s story, for @altrusarichardson for bringing me here. Thurgood Marshall, Northlake, Forest Lane and Wallace, you’re filled with bright minds and awesome teachers, librarians and administrators!
