Reading for the Love of It!
Breakfast with Melanie Watt and lunch with Jian Ghomeshi! Two very different stories and a great way to spend a Friday!
Surprisingly, Melanie is very shy and reserved but shared her life story and how she became so successful with writing children's books.
(Scaredy Squirrel and Chester are her main characters-- for all the non-teachers)
Jian made me really regret not bringing technology with me today. He spoke about embracing multi platform media and pop culture and announced to a very surprised audience that Mubarak stepped down and the people of Egypt were celebrating in the streets.
Lots of food for thought and a very enjoyable day with my fellow teacher-librarian and dear friend Cindy!
