Today I spent the morning with the 3rd and 4th graders at Central Elementary in Mabank, TX!

I had a great time talking writing and special effects in movies, and the 3rd graders made some great animal noises (on cue, not just on their own). And they even taught me a few new ones!

I even got to see some old friends who had seen me before in Rockwell ISD during the great freeze last year. It was great seeing you again, Sophia and Tommy!

Thanks to Mrs. Popham for inviting me. And thanks to all the wonderful 3rd and 4th graders who made for a fun time in Mabank, TX!

My very first in-person author visit in over a year had me at Blanchard Elementary in Blanchard, Oklahoma. It was great to be out again and answering many great questions from students in person for a change. I was not only greeted by a bunch of smiling faces but also some amazing art including characters from my work and the phrase everyone should remember!

Thanks to Mr. Heitt for having me out, thanks to Mrs. Clark for all the help and kind words, and a big thanks to all the amazing students at Blanchard Elementary. I hope you enjoyed my presentations as much as I enjoyed getting back out in the world and doing them for you!
