• The pictures above were from a great article written by Rickeena Richards of the Belleville News Democrat. The article was picked up by the Associated Press and was reprinted in many papers and on-line articles...including USA Today, The Pantagraph from Normal, IL, and the Chicago Tribune

• This is my first "official" book as an author. Phyllis Hostmeyer and I co-authored the book that bundles Storytelling, QAR Strategies, and Character Education. The sections of the book include: a "how-to" for storytelling; a tutorial on Question Answer Relationship; and 18 stories divided into 3 ages groups that cover 6 character traits. Each story gives the full story, the bones of the story, and the QAR questions and activities.
