My March reading included 18 noteworthy books that earned 4 and 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews shared on Goodreads (mostly 5 stars) for a total of 57 books this year.
Please feel free to check out my reviews on Goodreads and share this post. I’m going to share it on my other social media. If you have read any of these books or know the authors or illustrators, you are welcome to share with them too. Thanks for reading. 📚
I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.

Laura, you’re on a roll! Thank you for including THE OCEAN’S HEART in you March reading!!! You’re the best!!!❤️
I was so happy to be able to share it with my little one and my readers! I shared the blogpost of Bluesky and Facebook. I am still trying to figure out the best way to share the images in a reel on instagram. Feel free to offer suggestions.
If I could figure out how to use IG efficiently, I’d be a happy camper. Reels still throw me. Even figuring out how to add any bells and whistles to shared stories makes me feel inept.
So true! It often feels overwhelming. I’m torn, because there’s so much I want to keep up with, but just don’t have the bandwidth—and still get some sleep. So I’m trying to embrace the “do what you can” motto without feeling guilty about not doing what I can’t.

I’ve been making some reels and trying to use edits but I know there must be a better way to.

I’m also going to make another attempt at Substack but I don’t have many followers there. It’s a lot to keep up with.
