My herb garden! Love playing in the soil and taking in the smell of fresh oregano, basil, sage, and thyme, and chives, always chives! And the jalapenos and hot peppers help with bugs!

I was so inspired by a brief but insightful conversation with beautiful Rosined Badia, a Dallas Independent School District librarian that I met at the Texas Library Association Convention. Such a reminder of the special super powers of school librarians. They know how to connect through books! #school librarians @dallasisd_libraries #authorvisits #theaquamarinesurfboard #amethysttheshallows #theyellowcottagestories #thebeachlings #powerofbooks #middlegradereaders #yareaders #raisingreaders #bookstagrammer #teachersandlibrarians #librariansrock #authorsinspiredbylibraries #readmorebooks📚

Madeleine L'Engle boldly wrote stories about time travel and telepathy, embracing physics and a variety of scientific theories, considered radical in her time. As a result, her expansive body of work is timeless, crossing genres, and appealing to all ages. She wrote about universal themes like love (both dark and light), nature, art, music, poetry...and a variety of spiritual viewpoints. She looked for connections...how things that may appear to be different, may actually be the same. #theaquamarinesurfboard #amethysttheshallows #thebeachlings #theyellowcottagestories #readmiddlegrade #librarians #magicalrealism #bookstagrammers #schoollibrarians #storytelling #madeleinelengle #timetravel #tla2024
