We had such a great time talking with Dawn Quigley today all about the fabulous Jo Jo Makoons and friendship! She gave such great advice to young readers and writers. What was your favorite part?

What a magical time we had with Mary Pope Osborne! She encouraged students to use their imaginations, spend more time outdoors, and step away from screens. She talked about her exciting research for an upcoming book AND gave us a sneak peek at a brand new Magic Tree House cover!
