On this day devoted to love, me and a few of my author pals have come together to show teachers and librarians just how much we love them.

Lynda Malally Hunt, Sarah Albee, Anna Staniszewski, Augusta Scattergood, Caroine Starr Rose, Jennifer Richard Jacobson, Jess Keating, Laurie Ann Thompson, Leslie Bulion, Nikki Loftin, Stacy DeKeyser, Jennifer Nielsen, Jacqueline Woodson, and I have each recently published a new book. Fiction. Nonfiction. Poetry. Novels. Photo essays. Picture Books. We are a diverse bunch. Together, our new books make one heck of an eclectic library … and we want YOU to own it. And guess what? We’re adding two classics, On the Road to Mr. Mineo’s by Barbara O’Connor and Walk Two Moons, by Sharon Creech. HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY RESIST?

Here, take a look at the collection:

 

Don’t you want to read them all? HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! You can read them all! Here’s what you need to do:
