I got this great note from Jenna Gilles at the Fall Creek Library this week, she suggested it would be a good blog post, and I agree!

“In November we are having a Bunch of Munsch storytime. So, I wrote Robert Munsch about it and to support him for his recent “coming-out” about emotional issues. I also asked him where I could get a copy of Put Me in a Book besides Scholastic Canada (Sue and I couldn’t find it available in accounts we have). So guess what??!?!?! He sent a copy of the book with his signature and a “Thanks for writing” message. (No letter was included.) HOW FREAKING SWEET IS THAT?!?!?!? During the storytime, I plan to read the book and then get a group photo with the book to send to Munsch as a thank you. How generous of him, right?!?

Okay, before I explode with joy, off I go!”

May you all have moments that make you want to explode with joy this week, too!
