Pine Tree Reading Program; Day 4

My last day in West Bloomfield, Michigan, was definitely a day I'll never forget!

I spoke to the Pine Tree readers at Doherty Elementary School:



They made an amazing mural based on How to Steal a Dog:







They sang a song and danced for me!



They made fantastic projects, like dioramas and a whole clothesline full of info about me and my book!







Thanks so much, Doherty!!!

Pine Tree Reading Program

I'm in West Bloomfield, Michigan, as part of their annual Pine Tree Reading Program.

How to Steal a Dog was one of the books chosen for the list, read by third to fifth grade students.

These students from Ealy Elementary have read FIFTEEN of the Pine Tree books!



The West Bloomfield Public Library helps coordinate the program. Their children's department is amazing:
