My last tour of 2019 is now complete and it was lots of fun and at times a little too much excitement. My flight out of Toronto was on December 1, right in the midst of a giant ice storm. Thankfully, my flight wasn’t canceled (many were) but it was delayed. I can’t complain — it’s not like airlines control the weather — but I didn’t get into my hotel room until 3 am and then was up at 6 am, for a 7:45 am pick-up with Brenda Oler of Scholastic Book Fairs to travel to the first school, Bell Creek Intermediate. I fortified myself with a weak cup of hotel coffee and was on my way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avid reader Olive did a spectacular job of introducing me to her fellow students at Bell Creek Intermediate on Monday morning, Dec 2. Thank you, Olive!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
