The absolute best thing about being a children's writer is seeing children engage with a book you wrote. Thank you @JGB_Library for sharing this lovely photo of your students' Peace roses! @Candlewick @CurtisBrownLtd.
Learning alongside @JGB_Giraffes 4th graders this week as we read A ROSE NAMED PEACE @BarbaraCRoberts - beautiful story about a rose developed in France that survived the war. Students created their own peace roses.

Wow, look at this! Something for those of us in the pre-tech-savvy generation!!.
There's been some talk this week about our friends at @USNatArchives needing help from folks who can read cursive to transcribe historical documents. We could use your help with that, too! We launched our crowdsourcing transcription program By the People in fall 2018. 🧵

One of the most valuable ways to support pollinators and other invertebrates is to provide them with the shelter they need to survive the winter. Thankfully, all you need to do is do less yard work.
