Great news! Sleepyhead was chosen to be a Spoonful of Stories book. This is exciting because it means that my book is getting right where every children’s author dreams their books will end up–the hands of kids.
Spoonful of Stories is a literacy project that is a joint effort of Cheerios and First Book (children’s literacy charity). This time the news gets even better though– every book will have the story printed in both English and Spanish!
If you’d like to learn more about this great project or just discuss literature in general, the awesome Mom It Forward blog is hosting a Twitter chat tomorrow and I’m a panel member! Hope to see ya there. Here’s some info.
