@BarackObama People, please be kind. I am sad about the cruel replies. Why you gotta be so mean? Thank you, President Obama, for your book.

More than anyone else, I wrote my book for young people—as an invitation to once again remake the world, and to bring about, through hard work, determination, and a big dose of imagination, an America that finally aligns with all that is best in us. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Research shows that students read 50-60% more in classrooms with adequate libraries (Catapano, 2009; Morrow, 2003; Kim, 2003; Neuman, 1999). This is in ADDITION to the school library, not as a replacement.

Buy books & give them to the kids, people. Stop spending money on test prep workbooks. Stop cutting librarians and book budgets. Put books in kids' hands that reflect their experiences & invite them to learn about other people. It's not complicated. My #nerdybookclub post: twitter.com/nerdybookclub/…

I have taken to bed with ice cream, my dog, and the new issue of People. I am thinking bad thoughts about Susan Collins and snakes, but luckily the PA system on my brain is not working today.

. @donalynbooks and I need your help! We're writing a book about the importance of book access for all kids. If you are a classroom or teacher or school librarian, it would mean the world to us if you took this quick survey. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
