Thank you to everyone who took part in the inaugural #RightToReadDay. We challenge you to continue supporting your library and defending the freedom to read by repeating these actions again and again, and to encourage others to join the effort. uniteagainstbookbans.org/rig…
ALT Text graphic that reads "RIGHT TO READ DAY: PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM TO READ." The date "April 24, 2023" is crossed out and replaced with "EVERY DAY". Unite Against Book Bans logo in the top right.
Was it an accident? Or is this author the all-knowing man I know him to be?

Please join me in signing the petition against any legislation that would criminalize libraries, education, and museums by removing long-standing defense from prosecution exemptions under obscenity laws. fightforthefirst.org/petitio…
Excited to welcome author @EsmeSymesSmith to Hawthorne today! Grateful to @BookCellar for the opportunity.🧡
Loved her illustrations, their collaboration, and the romance that comes through in this obit.

I need your help! All donations are being matched TODAY & these books are so needed. Any amount is helpful! donorschoose.org/project/lgb… @CTULocal1
I resent the funding situation at CPS which leads to the elimination of vital School Library roles. Especially when those roles are filled by outstanding mentor librarians!! If you agree, please consider signing this petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
Literacy Teachers recognize the value of a staffed school library! Not sure why my district still starts budget savings in school libraries. linksharing.samsungcloud.com…

The hat tip to AKR brings this over the top. And I so appreciate the lesson. That a book is a book, and reading is reading, even if it is a "crappy" grocery-store novelization of a movie!
Thank you for all the kind messages about this announcement. I look forward to talking more about Louder Than Hunger next year. ❤️ Thank you, @Candlewick!

I spent most of 8th grade and 9th grade in an inpatient treatment center for anorexia and anxiety. I wrote a fictionalized version of it called Louder Than Hunger. I talked about it publicly for the first time today: publishersweekly.com/pw/by-t…
