I have many reasons to smile….

1. It is summer vacation!

2. I get to spend more time with my son Sam!

3. I have time to read more books!

I love when books make me smile! Don’t you?

And speaking of books that make me smile…

If you are feeling grumpy….. nothing will end your grumpy mood like the new book Hooray For Hat by Brian Won!

I dare you to watch this trailer and not smile. It can’t be done!

Feeling Happy? Now check out Brian Won’s Website!

Need To Smile More?! Mr. Schu interviewed Brian Won on Watch. Connect. Read.

Want some icing on that happy cake? Go buy Hooray For Hat now or borrow it from your local public library.

I can’t wait to share Hooray For Hat with my students in the fall. I plan on having a hat day to celebrate.
