Happy Poetry Friday! (Wondering what Poetry Friday is? Click here.)
A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to attend the Texas Library Association conference in Austin to take part in Sylvia Vardell and Janet Wong’s awesome Poetry Round Up. What a great event!
I’m sharing the clip of the poems I read here:
And if you’d like to see my photos from TLA, just click here! What an amazing conference full of passionate educators and book makers!
Hungry for more poetry? Liz Steinglass has the Poetry Friday Roundup today (not to be confused with the event I’m talking about in this post)!

Laura,
I’m not rounding up today. I will be next Friday. Liz Steinglass has today’s.
Fun to hear you read, Laura! Each book is a pleasure to read.
Aw, thanks for listening, Linda!
What a gathering! (And to think I know nearly everyone in the photo!) One of these days I’ll make it to TLA. Right now, I’m getting excited for my first NCTE with you and the crew!
It’s going to be fantastic!
What a gathering of talent in those photos! Your poems are lovely, Laura. I own 2 of your 3 new books, and the third is on my list. Congratulations on all of your new book babies!
The event was awesome:) Thanks so much, Kimberly!
How fun to hear you read!
Thanks, Liz! Excited about NCTE!
That is quite a poetry gathering! I enjoyed hearing you read such a great collection of poems.
Thanks, Kay!
What a treat to hear your poetry reading from your three Poetry Palooza books! I loved hearing the refrain “I’m lonely without my girl!”
