I recently had my first in-person author visit in two years! It was so much fun to share the Sophie Washington series with Bastian Elementary fourth and fifth graders. The students were excited and engaged and asked great questions.
Thanks to a generous donation from the READ Twelve Days of Christmas Houston program, over 200 kids got Sophie Washington books. To add to the fun, Principal Alana Holloway gifted me with a bagful of school swag. By the end of the event I felt like an honorary Bastian Bear!
