Mo Willems will be turning 51 in February! We will celebrate our favorite author by spreading some Mo love. Please join us on Wednesday, February 13 @ 9:30 to enjoy some of his classic books read to you by the amazing dream team of room 178. I know it can be challenging to attend things like this during the work week....feel free to pass this along to grandparents or aunts/uncles as well. We look forward to seeing you on the 13th!
