When KBYU comes a-callin' . . .

and asks if you'll do an interview with Marcus Smith on "Thinking Aloud," of course you say oui!

I spent the morning with the delightful Mark Pulham (teacher, storyteller, librarian extraordinaire) discussing the subject of boys and books and how to get the two to go out on a date now and then. The program airs today at 11:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.

UELMA

I'm on my way up to Davis county for the UELMA conference where I will be talking about boys and books. I've spent the week getting in touch with my inner ten year-old boy, who (as it turns out) is a lot like Luke on MODERN FAMILY. Like Luke, I'm the kind of ten year-old boy who likes to pull my arms back in my sleeves so it looks like I have T-Rex arms and then make I'm-going-to-eat-you-and-your-family noises. Good times!

I've found some good books reading that way this week. I'll post a few titles when I get home.
