What a great day yesterday at Sandburg Elementary School! Everyone was wonderful, and the 4th and 5th grade students in Ms. Blickhan’s class made an incredible book for me - 100 pages long! They covered my entire life, starting with growing up as a kid in a New York City apartment and writing my first book when I was in second grade…..and carrying all the way through my grownup writing career. Thank you so much - this is really a magnificent piece of work!

Here is an example of one of the pages. I will post more from this great book when I get home.

Thanks again to the Sandburg Elementary kids and staff. You made my visit to Springfield really special!
