Teachers have been giving me great feedback about using my books for English, Reading, ELA, Spanish, and Social Studies classes in upper elementary through high school. My books have also been successful with intergenerational literacy programs; book clubs for adults, teens, kids, and mothers/daughters; and adult ESL classes.

Here are some discussion guides and activity ideas to use with my books. If you've created any teaching or discussion materials that you'd like to share, please e-mail me, and I'll try to put them on my website or blog. Thanks!
