There's a phenomenon I actually see extremely commonly when literature is used to teach history to middle school and high school students. Let's call it "pajamafication."

Perfection!

I spent most of 8th grade and 9th grade in an inpatient treatment center for anorexia and anxiety. I wrote a fictionalized version of it called Louder Than Hunger. I talked about it publicly for the first time today: publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/ch…

“Stay angry, little Meg,” Mrs Whatsit whispered. “You will need all your anger now.” A Wrinkle in Time

Literacy Teachers recognize the value of a staffed school library! Not sure why my district still starts budget savings in school libraries. linksharing.samsungcloud.com/e9dN05nhpPDh

I resent the funding situation at CPS which leads to the elimination of vital School Library roles. Especially when those roles are filled by outstanding mentor librarians!! If you agree, please consider signing this petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/we-s…

Holy. Shit. What a brilliant, horrifying cover.

Want to make a difference in a CPS school? Help fund updates (library was empty for a decade!) to this HS's collection. #dogood #helpreaders #representation

Excited to welcome author @EsmeSymesSmith to Hawthorne today! Grateful to Book Cellar for the opportunity.🧡

Please join me in signing the petition against any legislation that would criminalize libraries, education, and museums by removing long-standing defense from prosecution exemptions under obscenity laws. fightforthefirst.org/petitions/stop…

Was it an accident? Or is this author the all-knowing man I know him to be? telegraph.co.uk/books/authors/…
