Our Rhode Island School “Tour”
Posted March 16, 2011
on:Well, we got off to a great start on our week-long visit to schools in Rhode Island, spreading Arlene’s message as far and wide as possible. We kicked the week off at the school of the girl who inspired the book, Grace Caldarone. A big shout-out to all our new friends at Monsignor Clarke School!
Next we visited West Kingston Elementary–we loved seeing you all! Chariho Middle School–all 500 of you–glad we could talk, even if it was 8:30 in the morning for some of you! And to our friends at Hope Valley, thanks for all your great comments about the book. We loved that you loved it!
And thanks to Wakefield Books for hosting a great book-signing. We talked to a lot of our new friends that we met the past two days and continued to spread the word about the need to raise awareness of CMT. If you missed us today, we left behind signed copies at the store, and they are the rare ones with BOTH authors’ signatures. We’re not often in the same place, so grab one of those while they last!
We’re off to Warwick tomorrow, Providence Thursday, and Coventry Friday. And we’ll be at Symposium Books in East Greenwich on Friday from 3:30 to 5:00 if you’re in the area!
