This past week, Kindergarten through Grade 2 students had the privilege of attending virtual visits with award winning authors, Mitali Perkins (K and 1st) and Lulu Delacre (2nd). These author visits were sponsored by The Lincoln-Eliot PTO and Title I, in collaboration with Wondermore, a local non-profit organization.

Mitali Perkins has written many books for young readers. In Home is in Between, she describes the experience of navigating multiple cultures and embracing the complex but beautiful home in between. Each Kindergarten and Grade 1 student will receive their own copy of Mitali Perkins’ book Home is in Between.

Lulu Delacre has written and illustrated many of her own books and has illustrated books by other authors including The Storyteller’s Candle by Lucia Gonzalez and the acclaimed Turning Pages by Justice Sonia Sotomayor. Each grade 2 student will receive their own copy of Lulu Delacre’s book Luci Soars. 

Grades 4 and 5 will have their author visit on March 21st with author Maris Wicks.
