I had such fun finding the stories, talking to the teachers, children and parents in such diverse schools. I just had the amazing experience of going out with the mobile library in the Gobi Desert, Mongolia to help bring books to nomad children and others in very remote locations. How wonderful to share the joy of books with kids around the world! If you would like to find out how you can help to bring books or teaching resources to children in other countries, check my website and click on the cover of My Librarian is a Camel.
Thanks for reading my books!
