These are just some of the books I scored since I haven't fully unpacked yet. I was thrilled to get my hands on my first copy of my new picture book with James Dean -- <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Tool-School-Joan-Holub-ebook/dp/B01N5K8Z0Q/ref=dp_kinw_strp_1/130-4334294-2199732">Tool School</a> -- while at Scholastic. I hadn't seen these little busy-builder tools yet in final hardcover form since it pubs in July, and it was <i>saw</i>, er, <i>SO</i> exciting! And lunch with Anna DiVito netted me her new book with Kathleen Krull, America's First Ladies. What an exciting day!<br />
