For Educators

What a huge privilege and honor it is to work with educators. You make a difference in the lives of kids every day. You are my heroes. And this page is for you.

#FirstChapterFriday

There’s something special about sharing a story. So pull up a chair. I’m reading aloud the first chapter of each one of my books!

Curriculum Guides

Reading my books? I have collaborated with educators to create teacher guides with questions and activities that go with each of my books. Take look. Use what works! 

Activities

Looking for fun activities that start conversations and tie-in with my books?

Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

Now more than ever, we need to nurture, educate, and support the whole child. Their mind and their heart. Here are some resources and booklists to help.  

Writing Tips

What do you do when you get stuck? Where do find ideas when you feel like you have nothing to write about? How do you know when you’re done? Can you take the dread out of revision?

These answers are coming! I’m creating a series of videos to share my writing tips. So, if you have questions, want advice, need a hand, just go to the Contact Me section on my site, send me an email, and I’ll do my best to pass along my thoughts.
