"Roar of a Snore" in Dolly Parton's Imagination Library

This is surprising, but I don't think I've mentioned the fabulous honor of Roar of a Snore being selected for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library.  I got a letter from Dolly herself in May!

This is one reason I like Google Alerts.  It reminds me of things and it tells me about events like this reading, where my book was read to a classroom in Tennessee.

Thank you Dolly.  Thank you Peggy.

Thanks for a great time, San Anselmo Montessori!


Today I visited SAMS for the third time in 6 years.  It's always a delight. What a beautiful setting, dedicated teachers, and lovely children.  I shared my book ROAR OF A SNORE, then the young story magicians, ages 3-6, helped me write ROAR OF A SNORE II, set in a zoo with a new main character, Josie Jo.  A roomful of imagination!  The school gives each student a book, which I had the pleasure of signing.  We should all be grateful to schools like SAMS for giving young minds such a healthy beginning.
