A couple of weeks ago I did a Reading Day at the Executive Mansion in Madison, Wisconsin. The Reading Day is a part of the Read On Wisconsin, is a statewide book club for students and book-lovers across the state. Every month, the first lady, Jessica Doyle, recommends books for different age groups. She travels across the state to promote readings and literacy. She also invites school to come to the residence. Boys Without Names was chosen for middle school readers for October and I was fortunate to meet students from three different schools: Maple Dale Indian Hill School District (Milwaukee), Robinson Elementary School (Beloit) and Richmond School (Sussex). It is such and honor to have all my books chosen as Read On Wisconsin book and great privilege to work with the Jessica Doyle and the program coordinator Ashley Huibregtse.
