#JustaChicken Author Visit

Bethel was excited to host the #JustaChicken authors last week and it was a really nice visit!  Langston Moore and Preston Thorne were extremely professional and easy to work with.  The hardest part was finding a time they were available to visit - they are in high demand!

I really liked the message of their book - you are special and amazing, you are not #justachicken!  They did a great job revving up all of our K-5 students with their "reading workout" and I really liked how they talked with the 3-5th graders about doing their best in school and not expecting sports scholarships.  I think it was helpful to hear former football players say those things to them!

They did two big sessions, visited a few classrooms, had lunch with some 4th grade boys, and then autographed books before they left!  It was a great day and a lot of fun!
