Notes on February 2024
In February . . .

. . . we looked ahead to spring.
I picked 10 books I’m looking forward to in March, April, and May.

. . . I shared the book-related vanity plate of the year.
I really need to up my license plate game.

. . . I shared the cover for a book that won’t come out for a loooooong time.
But I’m still excited for you to read Caboose, written by me and illustrated by Ruth Chan. It’s dedicated to teachers and arrives in 2025.
