I’m sharing this letter from a 2nd-grade teacher since I know it’s representative of what’s going on out there for so many parents and educators.
Good evening!

I’m a second grade teacher in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. My class has been reading some of your Jigsaw Jones books and I was wondering if I could have permission to create, maybe You Tube, a video that my students can access at home. Or, if you have another idea I am welcome to it! We are on chapter 9 of The Case of the Stolen Baseball Cards but I’d probably have to start at the beginning since it’s been over a week since we have been in school.
–
We’ve already read The Case of Hermie the Missing Hamster and hope to read The Case of the Race Against Time next.

Thanks so much for your support!
Lori,

Thank you for your email. You are doing valuable work, and I appreciate the request. Yes, emphatically, by all means, read and share and keep doing what you do.
–
The only request I have, suggested by my publisher, is that you delete the videos once school is back in session.
–
My best to you. Stay smart, stay safe, protect the vulnerable.
–
With love in my heart (I’m growing extra-sappy in these times).
–
And again, I feel very strongly that I’m the one who should be thanking you.
