1. I'm not sure I want to meet my favorite authors. I get really awkward when in those situations. But if I ran into one or just saw one, I would be thrilled.

2. Im not proud of it, but yes, but I also think of them as mental health days. We all need them. I actually scheduled a day off this month to read. 😀

3. Sweden to see my brother and his kiddos.
Thanks for the tag @Eggs

KathyWheeler Honestly, I think all workers should get mental health days that are separate from vacation and sick leave. One place I worked at had personal days that were apart from vacation and sick; you could use them any time you wanted for any reason. 4y
Tera66 @KathyWheeler My company just gave us extra days this year. We have 6 days to use, no penalty for calling in, for mental or physical health of ourselves or a loved one. I work in healthcare, so I think Covid was the catalyst for this decision. 4y
Eggs Thanks for playing @Tera66 - great responses 👌🏼📚👏🏻🥰 4y
KathyWheeler @Tera66 We had 4 personal days added this year; where I work now hadn‘t had them before. They added them because they reduced our salaries for 4 months because of COVID related financial issues. 4y

#UCFLA3414F17 Tuck Everlasting by Suzanne Barchers. It is a historical fiction book. It is a story about an immortal family that meet a young girl and begin a friendship.

ProfessorOak This link https://alex.state.al.us/lesson_view.php?id=29988 will bring you to lessons you can use with the book. I would personally use UDL 1.1 offering ways to customize the display information. #UCFLA3414F17 7y
ProfessorOak And I would use ESOL strategy 20 list the most important words and phrases you use or plan to use in a presentation on transparency or on the chalkboard. #UCFLA3414F17 7y

#RiotGrams Day 19: Opposites

[Spoiler alert] When you re-read one, you hope she‘ll live, when you re-read the other, you hope she‘ll die (in a nice way).

So I'm combining my #funfridayphoto and my #mostreread. When I was trying to think of a book I had reread I couldn't think of any since I was a teenager, so I went back to when Tuck Everlasting came out and I reread the book about 4 times in one year and watched the move about 100 times! #feistyfeb

DebinHawaii A good one! Both the book and movie! 👍📚 8y

I'm having the hardest time getting into any book- after listening to the most recent Read Aloud Revival podcast, I thought I'd go for some kid lit. Hopefully, it will jumpstart my 2017 reading.

christineandbooks So many wonderful stories! Natalie Babbitt's stories are amazing. The only one in that stack I haven't read is Moon Over Manifest and it's on my TBR for this year.... can't wait! Enjoy your books! 8y
