"Finally, about 50 years after Chandra first talked about

stars disappearing, he won the Nobel Prize for his work.

More than the recognition, what mattered to him was that,

finally, the world saw the truth."-@shrurao.bsky.social

Thanks Terri! ❤️

Thanks SO much! What a delight to share in this space. ❤️

Oh that sounds like a wonderful book! I will definitely get it. I'm so thankful my mom took me to the library every week and we both returned with tall stacks of books. I always tell students at my author talks -- "my story began at the library." #TLSkyChat

Love this idea! I plan to look up this series.

Lessons That Connect Making and Children’s Literature Dr. Jacie Maslyk gives you starter ideas to help you connect making activities with children's literature.

#TLSkyChat A7 💬 #Nonfiction is a natural partner for makerspaces. Pairing books with maker activities helps kids connect reading with doing. This Demco blog post shares ideas for linking children’s nonfiction to hands-on projects that spark curiosity.

Oh that'd be terrific! I'll also be in person at the National Building Museum on Sunday 10/5 if any of the students and families might be interested in a book reading plus craft activity ... #TLSkyChat nbm.org/event/just-d...

oh la la! I love that question and I can't wait to see what you librarians think! #TLSkyChat

#TLSkyChat That's so wonderful to hear, Heather -- "reminds them of the wonder they felt in elementary." I love sharing my nf pb bios with middle schoolers!

So important and powerful #TLSkyChat

#TLSkyChat Oh! That's so great you're doing one for World Architecture Day on October 6, Lori. I'm doing a free virtual event with the Smithsonian Stamp Museum with my book about I M Pei and the Louvre: The Glass Pyramid. Anyone is welcome to join!

#TLSkyChat And my latest book THE GLASS PYRAMID has such stunning illustrations by Khoa Le and they were printed to perfection

#TLSkyChat oh ... now I'm blushing! There are so many incredibly generous authors. YOU are so generous!!

#TLSkyChat You're SO right about publisher support with gorgeous printing etc. My BOATS ON THE BAY nf pb and board book now even has a gatefold!! (Cameron Kids)

#TLSkyChat Oh WOW! I'm so happy to hear that these activities are of value. Thanks for sharing!

SO aptly put!

I like what you say about needing perspective.

Isn't it amazing to see what illustrators conjure up?

Congratulations Cait!

Interesting! I look forward to seeing that Chris. Always good to mix things up

#TLSkyChat A1 I love STEAM (with an emphasis on Art) nonfiction which I seek to write in a lyrical way to appeal to the reader

That's terrific!

Hi Melissa! So wonderful to find you here!
