We had an exciting morning on Monday. Brandon Mull, the author of the "Fablehaven" books came and talked to Harvest Elementary. He did a great job promoting reading and using your imagination. The students were able to get their books signed by him. My kids were all excited. Originally we were told the signing would happen before the assembly. I made sure that my kids were to school early and they were fourth in line. He was late and so the signing happened after he spoke. Of course I showed up and watched the assembly. Someone needed to take pictures of my kids getting their books signed. I will admit I am a little star struck. My boys got his first two books for Easter last year. Tom and I read the books during the summer and loved them. I am really excited for the fourth book to come out March 29th. They are really good books and I would recommend them to everyone(young and old). Anyway, I had an exciting Monday. Brandon Mull looks really young. I would guess he is younger than me, which freaks me out because I'm not that old.

That's way cool. I started this series a few weeks ago and I'm on the third one right now. I think he's a great author! I'm also excited for book 4.
Oh, I didn't realize that assembly was this week. Would have been cool... Your kids' pictures are darling. I don't think I'd have thought to take pictures! You really are always prepared with a camera, huh?
I've heard good things about these books. I'll have to read them.
Oh, and you're probably right about his age. His website says he graduated from BYU in 2000. (And no, you're not that old! I think he's young for a NY Times bestselling author!)
Ooh, cool. I love it when someone tells me of a good book! I will have to read them.
I am the same way, Misti. Everyone is younger than us now!!! It freaks me out!
That's so awesome. I had no idea that was even going on. Oh, do you have book 3, I haven't it read it yet, and was hoping you'd let me borrow it? PLEASE!! Oh and I'll be at Daphne's on Friday... I look forward to seeing you, maybe you could bring the book along. ;)
What a great school event. I need to get reading. I am still on book 1.
Miss you guys!
My kids love those books too! Glad you got some pictures with such a good role model!
