FIRST READING AT MILL VALLEY PUBLIC LIBRARY

Thanks to to the wonderful Mill Valley Public Library for hosting my very first official Journey reading and program! I have a soft spot for this library. Not only is it where I did my internship while in library school, but it’s got to be the most beautiful, serene library in the country, and just being near it makes me happy. And of course it was such a pleasure to share Journey with a great group of  kids and parents–all of whom impressed me with their knowledge, interest, and questions.
