Here is an excerpt from my new book.
11 Nov 2024
“Reading fiction deepens our knowledge of the world, but doing so creates an added bonus: it deepens our understanding of what it means to be a good human being.” 📖 In his latest book, author @KellyGToGo shares how to support students in reading novels: edut.to/4hHIMni

I enjoyed my discussion with @davestuartjr where we discuss topics ranging from maintaining one's love of teaching to helping students become better readers. A good convo for your drive to/from school: youtube.com/watch?v=Ar5UGHwl… Thanks, Dave.

After a delay, my new book is now available on Amazon, but with the current discount, it is still much cheaper on the Heinemann website: heinemann.com/products/e1614…

NEWS: The publication date for my new book has been moved up to...TODAY! If you order from @HeinemannPub, it should arrive shortly. Because it is a month early, it will take Amazon a week or two before it is posted there. heinemann.com/products/e1614…
