In a Snapshot…

After 8 years in the classroom, I pressed pause to spend more time with my girls while they’re still little. In turn, I get to share my books and connect with the community in new ways. I also love sharing reading tips on my socials that I believe all parents (not just teachers) should know. 🫢🏼
