So I was very happy that I was able to do one this week for Ms. Thomson's grade four class at Roberts Creek Elementary. We held the reading outdoors on a nice fall morning. As always, lots of great questions and eager young readers. Looking forward to more of these in the future.]]><![CDATA[Signing Books at Gibsons Museum]]>Fri, 23 Jul 2021 21:30:51 GMThttps://rainybaypress.weebly.com/news/signing-books-at-gibsons-museumPicture
