Enjoy the photos from my presentation of Fearless Traveler (in mask!) at Eagle Elementary School, Eagle, Wisconsin with the third grade classes on April 30, 2021. A wonderful day! We talked about the work that writers do in coming up with ideas, research, writing and revision. I read the book aloud outdoors—a perfect forest setting for Marianne North’s terrific plant paintings.
