NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - "The Dutrow 5th graders were full of energy. So I did like any visiting speaker would do- try to burn some of it off -with PUSH UPS! The boys were gamers- and they didn't mind that I took a break during their workout.
I shared my love of reading with them. But it seemed they didn't need any encouragement. They were fired up about having fun with all kinds of stories. They also know that readers are leaders and that knowledge is the power to get paid.
Thanks for all the fun, Dutrow! "
