Here’s Ethan’s Book Look #363, the Keeper of the Lost Cities series (by Shannon Messenger). Ethan and his sister Maddy also had the opportunity to conduct a special phone interview with the author, and their interview is attached to the book look video. The interview was supposed to be via Skype, but the internet happened to be down in our neighborhood yesterday, so we had to settle for audio. Nevertheless, the kids had a blast chatting with Ms. Messenger — they loved hearing her responses to their questions and they thought she was so cool!! Thank you Shannon Messenger for spending time with Ethan and Maddy; we all cant wait for Book #6 to come out!

How awesome is this?! A couple weeks ago, fifth graders at Tarbut V’Torah (TVT) organized a book drive at their school book fair, and the Lower School collected a total of 250 new, high-quality books for the library that we are building at CHOC Children’s Hospital! Afterwards, the school invited Ethan to their campus and presented him with the books in a very special school assembly. Afterwards, I sent a thank-you note to the school, and in return I received an amazing note from Laura Roth, the principal of TVT’s Lower School. Principal Roth’s note expressed TVT’s commitment to hold an annual book drive to benefit ECBC and CHOC. We are so excited to have our first Thrive Partner school (a commitment to ongoing annual support)! Thank you TVT! Click here to view Principal Roth’s letter:
