Dear Educators! As you go back to school, I'm giving away a City Spies boxed set. You can give them to kids! Put them in your school or classroom library! Or keep them for yourselves. Totally your call. Retweet to enter for a chance to win. (And make sure you follow me.)

Sending so much love to all of the school principals who are struggling to make an incredibly challenging situation work. We see you. We know you have not had a summer break. We know the weight of the world is on your shoulders. We love you. #OntEd
I just went for a walk in my neighbourhood and the principal of a @PeelSchools car was still parked in the parking lot... at 8pm on a Sunday night... her car has been there all day. Sending love to everyone in our school community who is struggling with this new school year ❤️

Trust is built on telling the truth, not telling people what they want to hear.

Thanks @Jarrett_Lerner , great reminder of how our actions and words impact our students!
What we say in front of kids — even offhandedly — can impact them profoundly. For better and for worse. Here’s a phrase I try to encourage others to never say, especially in front of kids. For many kids, drawing is a more natural form of expression and communication. 1/2

This Post is from an account that no longer exists. Learn more
How we speak to ourselves, our word choice, becomes part of our narratives. The difference b/w saying that you “are” a certain negative way and you “feel” a certain way is that being something is more finite while feeling something has room for hope and growth. #CelebrateMonday

After watching several children including my own read Amulet over and over again your work is whole heartedly appreciated @boltcity !
World: “Graphic novels are so popular! Why don’t people just make a lot more of them?!” Me: (Working until 2am, 7 days a week for stretches over 15 years to make Amulet) “I think... I think I know why.” World: “Can’t you just work faster?” Me: “Literally, no.”

Being courageous and showing up.....#cleariskind
Sharing my thoughts on love, and why unfollows and comments like, "Shut up and stick to your research" won't keep me from pressing on with purpose. You can read more here: bit.ly/2ELmPWx

No more writing on post-its, journals or the back of the hand when calling parents. Create a Google form to input data and to track responses using the autogenerated spreadsheet. A little organization during such uncertain times is making me feel a bit like myself again♥️
