Miss Simpson's first grade has been working hard on learning how to read and write 5-star sentences, so they got a special author visit from a former student today! Brody read his 2023 Young Authors story, "Octopus Has a Bad Day," from when he was in first grade, as well as his newest story, "The Drac Grave." Students got to listen to both stories, have a Q&A session with the author, and even got their own signed copies of his book! Everyone was so excited and inspired! They can't wait to start writing their own stories soon!
