Hi dear teachers! I hope you'll join me!

Today is the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy during WWII. Kids can learn more about this historic event with I Survived Graphix #9: The Battle of D-Day, 1944 by Lauren Tarshis, illustrated by @BrianChurilla! bit.ly/458YvWB

Teachers, I need your input for a topic for I Survived 25. Readers keep asking for WWI, but I am not in a trench warfare frame of mind. With the 250th anniversary of the Rev War coming up, maybe Yorktown or another battle? Dustbowl? Mt. Everest? Eager for thoughts!

How lucky I am to be a part of the community of all of you? Thank you to all who posted so many wonderful ideas. I am inspired and excited to get down to business. More soon, but ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!

parents and teachers! What do your middle schoolers think of when they hear the word "manners?" I'm editing a story for our amazing Scope mag. I'd love to hear their thoughts and let me know if your 6-8th grader would want to share ideas for the story.

Teachers!! Sending you my love and gratitude as you start this year. And to celebrate, I am giving away ten signed copies of my brand new graphic novel. I will announce winners by 9/4 ❤️❤️

Hi! A note to let you know that I've chosen the ten winners of a signed copy of my newest I Survived the Destruction of Pompeii AD79 graphic novel. I'll be DM-ing you today!

Teachers! Over the next few months I’ll be sharing videos about my I survived writing process. My goal is to engage your readers and get their feedback and ideas as I progress. Let me know your thoughts! ❤️

Taking a little break from writing I Survived 25 to write the speech for my son's wedding, happening next weekend. The only problem is that I keep tearing up with happiness, which makes it hard to see the computer screen!

Teachers! Can you and your students help me name my characters? I’m a bit stuck!!

These graphic novels are such a joy to see! Georgia Ball and so many incredible artists have brought my stories and characters to life in ways I never imagined.

Exciting mail arrived today!! Thanks to Lauren Tarshis for her contest for teachers to win one of 10 signed copies of her new graphic novel. Showed my class and we are happy to have it in our classroom library. Will be enjoyed by many students!!

My husband came into my office with today's UPS delivery — my author copies of I Survived the Black Death. Even after 24 books, seeing a brand new one in the "flesh" is a thrill! Out in the world 10/15. Can't wait to share this one with your readers.

When researching I Survived, I often find real kids from history who lived through the events I'm writing about. Those stories often become my Storyworks stories, like this one about the Chicago fire, for Storyworks 3. I love introducing your readers to kids from history!

Happy book birthday to I Survived the Black Death, 1348 (I Survived #24) by Lauren Tarshis!

I love all school visits, but at Ridge Meadows Elementary, in Ellisville, MO, magical librarian Lisa Molengraft & her students surprised me with this extravaganza. Dr. Amy Digman Thank you!

Look at these glorious creations!!!!!

Happy New Year to all of you teachers. Thank you for doing this most important job, for supporting kids, for navigating challenges, for uplifting and inspiring our young people. I feel so grateful to share this journey with all of you. YOU give my work purpose and meaning.

Hi friends. I've been absent lately taking care of my beloved dad, who passed away yesterday. He was a light in the world and its bringing me comfort to share him with you. westportjournal.com/obits/obituary…
