Books -- reading and writing.
Home, cooking, the weather.
And whatever connections I can make between these chapters of my life.

Mr. Schu Reads

He reads more than anybody I know!

John Schu, uber-librarian, even reads very old Newbery Medal books that most might consider better left forgotten...

And he makes cool things to illuminate his reading.
(Check out the very tippy-top left corner.)

A sneak peak at tomorrow's Newbery Challenge video

He's about to take a road trip with Ivan, 
Possibly heading your way, fellow Mississippians!

So if you see a couple of folks wandering in and out of independent bookstores
 with a stuffed gorilla, flaunt that trademark southern hospitality.
Maybe even feed them some fried okra and cornbread, please.
