\nAnother day in Mississippi and another welcome sign in front of Madison Avenue Upper Elementary<\/a>, in Madison, MS! I had a fast and furious morning with three shows for all the 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. Just like their younger counterparts next door, everyone was excited, full of questions, and extremely polite; I heard “yes, Sir. Thank you, Sir” so many times, I felt like an officer in the Army. I had the pleasure of meeting many of them personally when I signed 200 copies of my Night of the Dragons<\/a> book!

\nDuring a signing break, I had a chance to meet a fellow author and teacher at MAUE, Mrs. Michelle Smith. She gave me a copy of her first book all about the Common Core State Standards Initiative<\/a>. Don’t worry, her colorful book makes it much clearer than it sounds. It’s called What in the World is Common Core?<\/a> and it’s illustrated by DeAnna Backel. You can get your copy HERE<\/a> or simply click the book cover below.

\nThanks to Mrs. Berry and the PTO for having me out and giving me a big Mississippi welcome for the second day in a row–I think Mrs. Berry did great organizing her first author visit! And thanks to all the wonderful students at Madison Avenue Upper Elementary. I hope you all enjoy your books!
