What a start to the year!

Sorry it has been so long without a post. This year has brought many exciting things, including a new addition to my family! But my little one didn't slow me down much. 

February was full of fun readings and video conferences (technology is amazing) to talk to children about Harriet Tubman and the underground railroad. I always love seeing children get so excited to learn about history. It's amazing the thoughtful questions that a children ask..."Why did they have to be quiet", "Why were there slaves", "Was it underground", "Were there trains back then", "Are you married"? 

To see these childrens' little minds take in Harriet Tubman's story is remarkable. It reminds me why I do this and makes me want to write 1,000 more books about these remarkable women in history.
