Hello there, literacy friends! We’re so glad that you’re here with us for this episode of Leading Literacy because we have an amazing guest. Joining us is Suzanne Lang, the best-selling author of the “Grumpy Monkey” series along with other beloved picture books. We’ll chat with Suzanne about her journey as an author, the inspiration behind her character, especially our favorite, Jim Panzee, and the teamwork that’s involved in making it all work. It’s a fun conversation and we can’t wait to share it with you all.
