Posted Date: 02/27/2020

Third, fourth and fifth grade students at Celeste Elementary were treated to a Skype author visit with Dan Gutman on Feb. 26, 2020.  Mr. Gutman is the author of the very popular My Weird School and My Weird School Daze book series.  Students seem to connect with Gutman’s hilarious, zany writing style, and they are engaged by his silly, creative nature.  During the Skype session, students were able to ask questions about his life, books, writing, and book characters.  He also gave tips on how kids can write their own stories.
