We had a wonderful visit with our grandchildren after 18 long months.
Guess who loves Amanda!

About Jennie

I have been teaching preschool for over forty years. This is my passion. I believe that children have a voice, and that is the catalyst to enhance or even change the learning experience. Emergent curriculum opens young minds. It's the little things that happen in the classroom that are most important and exciting. That's what I write about. I was a live guest on the Kelly Clarkson Show. I am highlighted in the seventh edition of Jim Trelease's million-copy bestselling book, "The Read-Aloud Handbook" because of my reading to children. My class has designed quilts that hang as permanent displays at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia, the Fisher House at the Boston VA Hospital, and the Massachusetts State House in Boston.

    How wonderful. I have a collection of pictures with young readers holding my books. This will be added to it. So pleased you got to see the grandchildren and delighted Amanda’s adventure in the land of tulips was enjoyed. Thanks for this!

    I have to imagine there’s no better feeling than watching a child enjoy one of your books. I’m glad Darlene and your granddaughter get to share in this experience.
