Fun photos and feedback from the St. Louis Art Museum

"Ann’s reading of Adventures of the Treasure Fleet was a wonderful addition to a weekend full of events highlighting Ming-Era China and Chinese culture in general. Her storytelling technique kept children and parents alike rapt with attention, and the book is absolutely beautiful. I cannot recommend highly enough a presentation by this talented author and storyteller." Amanda Mueller, Director of Family Programs, St. Louis Art Museum

Schools Encourage Young Writers by Publishing their Work

I was quite pleased to take part in two celebrations recently. These celebrations were honoring the fine writing that students have produced this school year. It was clear that students at both Rod Kelley School of Gilroy and West Valley School of Sunnyvale were very proud of their published work. They couldn't wait to show guests their awesome books! It didn't surprise me at all that these young published authors had lots of good questions for me! Three cheers for Rod Kelley and West Valley Schools!
