#BannedBooksWeek is an annual celebration of the freedom to read. But our new report shows this freedom is in grave danger: The coordinated movement to ban books in schools is growing at an increasingly rapid pace. #FreeTheBooks pen.org/report/banned-…

The #HookC isn't just a program, it's a Family. Our Family is staying home in Storrs, where they belong! #UConnNation

@MsCaturano Just finished The Last Thing He Told Me! Add it to your list!

Summer break means I can finally dive into some new books. Up Next: The Circle and The Every by Dave Eggers courtesy of #SoraApp which delivers to my Kindle for free! Send over Kindle Unlimited and Sora book recs so I can spend my whole summer reading way too much! 🙂

Fans at today’s game - RT to win a #HookC hat❗️ Winner will be announced at the end of the third inning. Good luck!

Today is World Teacher’s Day! The 2021 theme is “Teachers at the Heart of Recovery.” Celebrate and thank the teachers who are doing their best every day to help students learn and grow!

Our job really matters! 🧡
