Author Visit

Jeremy had an author come and visit is his school to promote the book fair. Jeremy really wanted the kids to meet the author since both Olivia and Garrett like her books. So he came and checked them out of school early and took them to his school to meet the author. Since he is the principal he was able to have the kids meet her one on one and talk to her about writing and the books. The kids really loved it.  Plus Jere took them to McDonalds for lunch. 
Garrett thinks this book is really funny.  The author signed his book "Happy Burping!"
The first day at a new school is always the hardest, right? No, not always as George finds out the hard way. On the second day at…Sugarman Elementary School, he is suddenly seized by uncontrollable burps, burps so loud they practically break the sound barrier, burps that make him do wild and crazy stuff and land him in trouble with a capital T. One thing is for sure: these are not normal burps, they are magic burps—and they must be stopped! But how?
Olivia likes this series.  They are fun and easy to read.  The author signed her book "From one author to another"
atie Carew, nicknamed Katie Kazoo by the class bully, had no idea what would happen when she wished that she could be anyone but herself. But now her wish has come true, and-switcheroo!-she keeps turning into other people and even animals! What is one ordinary third-grade girl with a really extraordinary problem to do? It's a good thing Katie is resourceful and smart enough to find a solution for every problem . . . no matter how much of a disaster she causes!
This is Nancy Krulik.  I wish Jere would have taken a picture with her and the kids.
