Hello everyone! I am the author of the Marvelous World series and on March 10th I made my second trip to speak at the Harvard Graduate School of Education for Professor Fernando Reimers' Masters Class. It was an amazing experience to tell such a high ranking class about my journey as both an author and educator. My key speaking points were how I landed my book deal, Marvelous World University, and Marvelous World FAVORITES Day. The class seemed to be really engaged while I spoke and I was forwarded a comment from a student saying "it was the best class ever." That's pretty cool.
One of the reasons why Marvelous World is so appropriate to be spoken about at Harvard, especially at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, is because"Marvelous World Book One: The Marvelous Effect" fulfills the Common Core State Standard Initiative (CCSSI) requirements for grades 6th - 12th. All books that are introduced into the curriculum in 48 states must do that. This is one of the reasons why teachers are all up in arms about the CCSSI being the reason why books are being taken out of their classrooms. Read about the educational aspects of "Marvelous World Book One: The Marvelous Effect" here.
I hope others can use my work to elevate our youth. That is one of the reasons why I wrote it.
