Shelf Stuff Summer Reading Challenge!
Where we stand.
Quarantine Shout-out
Lately, I’ve received numerous requests from teachers asking for short videos of encouragement on final school assignments that utilize comics and graphic novels.
For any educators who’d like a little word of encouragement and sendoff for their students doing these types of projects, I made a short video. Feel free to use it at will.
Also, THANK YOU to educators who have tried their hardest under these tough circumstances to boost their students’ mood and make learning fun online. I know it hasn’t been easy, and you are so appreciated!

BRIANNA’s Book Birthday!!

Becoming Brianna is the fourth book in the best-selling Emmie & Friends series. The story brings Brianna from Positively Izzy back into the limelight, in a way she never thought possible.
