Since we are snowed in this week, and I am privileged to have electricity and Internet, I used the extra time to prepare a few surprises for my readers. I am so thankful for you and I want to make your life teaching or using my books as easy as possible! So…

• Make sure you check the Alicia, Alice, Khadra, and Camille free resources posts as I have updated them with even more free resources!

• If you own a class set of one of the books in the trilogy, I have a SUPER SPECIAL gift for you: illustrations from the book in COLOR. You can use them for Picture Talk, Write & Discuss, Predictions, Assessments, and to generate a ton of great conversations.

• If you own all 3 sets, you will also receive a never published before illustration of our four friends!

• So, if you own a class set of Alice/Alicia, and/or Khadra and/or Camille, please get in touch with me so I can send you these beautiful illustrations, made by the amazing Jennifer Nolasco.

• And don’t forget to join our online community at Toward Proficiency on FB where passionate teachers are sharing how they use my resources 🙂

Happy reading!
