I had another great author visit today in Plano, TX. This time, it was at Barksdale Elementary. Little did I know that I had visited many of the students’ older brothers and sisters last year at nearby Renner Middle School!
I enjoyed the wonderful murals throughout the school, all the nice teachers, and the very well-behaved Barksdale students. I was especially happy to find that there was a copy of my favorite Wishbone book in the library: Case of the Impounded Hounds.
I’d like to thank Poornima Poondi and the Barksdale PTA for having me out. Thanks to Paige Edwards for the use of the library, for helping set up, and for the wonderful literary conversation during lunch.
I’d like to give a super-big thanks to all the Barksdale Broncos! Be sure to check out my Wishbone book when you get a chance! Like Wishbone says, “there’s nothing like chewing on a good book!” Okay, don’t really chew the book. There’s only one left, after all!
