January 27 is Family Literacy Day! The theme “Learning in the Great Outdoors” is close to my heart. I love learning about plants and animals, and many of my books and illustrations are inspired by things I observe in nature. Families are invited to join me on January 27 at 4:30 pm EST for a live virtual presentation featuring a clay demonstration and Q&A. You can find how to register for this free event here.

Here is a picture I created inspired by outdoor learning. What will YOU find in the great outdoors?
