How is this real life? My little dragon book, written during lockdown to keep my 9 year old daughter entertained, about to be on the 2 biggest state reading lists in the country?!?! Thank you Texas and Florida librarians!! 🥰🥰🥰

I read this is one day. @marimancusi had me hooked from page one, and I haven’t stopped talking about it since… 🐉🌆

The great book return has begun! Thank you teachers for helping to remind your students to return those books.

So grateful for my Phillips fam! Thank you for all the love. I should have taken a picture of all the sweet notes from students, too! I have the best job EVER!!! ❤️📚

Thank you to @canineorg for partnering with our school this year! We have LOVED having Danny in the library. 📚🐶

1st grade is crushing March Madness! They have created an engaging way to read and vote. I can’t wait to see who the winner will be. 📚 @MrsNowlinIn413 @PhillipsElem

5th grade read parts of “The One Thing You’d Save” and discussed something the would save/something meaningful to them. The conversation was incredible! @PhillipsElem @FISD_Libraries
