What We're Reading Sunday, Author's Visit!

We had an author visit at school this week! My first graders were so excited and my son was too! 

Local authors (and fellow fab teachers) Rosalind Bunn and Kathleen Howard, shared their latest creation, The Monsters Three.

They explained how they come up with ideas, work together, make changes, and even compromise as they write. It was very encouraging for our budding writers!

Another big hit was the illustration talk. The students were all so intrigued with the process of going from sketch to full color pictures.

The big finale of their visit was the reading of the story. The kids went nuts over the Halloween story focused on using good manners. You can check out the book HERE on Amazon. 

You can check out my adorable son making his best monster face and absolutely loving his new book HERE. 

He loves the rhyme in the story and has been chanting it all evening. 

Do you have a spooktacular read to share? Please do!
