On the cold morning of February 22nd I drove from my hotel in Lubbock to the gorgeous campus of All Saints School in Lubbock. I had come at the invitation of Lower School Division Head Lindy Long. I'll always owe a huge debt of gratitude to Lindy--she was the first school head to confirm an author visit on my inaugural book tour of Texas. We couldn't have had more fun and I loved meeting the wonderful head Librarian Karen Gretzler who hosted my visit in her warm, inviting library. I was so impressed by the bright group of students, a couple  of whom had actually been to Muleshoe--just an hour away from Lubbock, and who were amazed to hear about the town's magical history.

​

Lindy wrote, "Our students were mesmerized by you on your visit and I've seen several of them with the books in hand already reading them. I am going to put them on my summer reading list too!"

​

Thank you Lindy, I can't wait to get back to All Saints!
