My first nonfiction picture book - which comes out today from @penguinkids - is a love letter to books, libraries, learning and Civil Rights leader John Lewis, who loved those things, too. 🧵1/6 – at Sun Prairie, WI

I’ve been making grids to help teachers plan for next term’s units using books from the library. It’s been fun making connections and being inspired by all these amazing titles-my wishlist is getting longer thanks to inspiration from @nikkigamble @one_to_read @KarlDuke8 @smithsmm
