Mrs. Shinn attended an event at Concordia University in Seward, NE where author Dav Pilkey, who’s written such children’s books as the “Captain Underpants,” series and “Dog Man” talked to a crowd of fans. He stressed the importance of reading and children need to have time to read books of their own choosing. Mrs. Shinn visited with Dav Pilkey and the Scholastic representative about her students love of reading. They were so impressed that they sent her home with many items for her classroom. Including autographed posters for each student and “Reading Gives You Superpowers!” capes. Mrs. Shinn’s students were so excited with their gifts they put on their capes and went to the Library for some pictures with their favorite books.
