Every year since being on the bench, I have read for Nevada Reading Week at Liliam Lujan Hickey Elementary School (with the help of Ed Gonzalez). I thought this year I would have to miss it because I was in a trial.
But, when the trial verdict came back earlier than scheduled, I was able to quickly squeeze in a visit to another local elementary school. And I got to read to 107 first graders! I read the two books pictured. A Tale of Two Beasts was a great segue into a discussion about what a Judge does. It is such a clever way of presenting two sides to a story. And finally, we ended with a Q & A segment. The questions were amazing and are always a joy!
Next year, I’ll be back at Hickey. But, this was a great last minute replacement.
