[AISLE-Share] One of Us Is Lying: Ideas for a library program / class project?

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

Our student book club just skyped with Karen McManus on Tuesday. They loved
it. We paid $150 for 45 minutes of her time and she was engaging, friendly,
and thoughtful. She gave about 7 minutes of background on her writing
process, inspiration behind *One of Us Is Lying* and the rest of the time
she did Q&A with the kids. You can contact her at writerkmc at gmail.com

>> Perhaps a Breakout Box?

>> Any other ideas?

>> Thanks!
