The theme for National Library Week 2023 is "There's More to the Story," illustrating the fact that in addition to the books in library collections, available in a variety of formats, libraries offer so much more. It's the perfect time to visit your library! #NationalLibraryWeek

I'm so honored that ReThink the Internet was selected as one of 36 @IllinoisReads books for 2023 (in the 6th - 8th grade category)! Truly grateful for the recognition from my home state, and can't wait to see more Illinois youth spreading kindness and positivity online.
