My copies of the Chinese edition of After Zero are here! Kinda weird that I can’t read a version of my own book, but incredibly cool that people on the other side of the world can□ pic.twitter.com/d0PASw1iRq

I love that the Dedham Public Library has a new Zoom Middle Grade Book Club for grades 5-8, & that their June pick is After Zero! They'll "meet" on 6/16; invite all the middle schoolers you know!

(Fun fact: My first real job after college was in Dedham)https://t.co/Y27WgcWrHq

This just in! School Library Connection says of #AfterZero: "...a thoughtful book that sheds light on a little known anxiety disorder...
