Arizona Reading Journal

Just got my latest edition of the Arizona Reading Journal with my article published about Sesame Street.  The article sits nicely towards the middle and is called, "The Woman Who Paved the Way for Sesame Street:  A Biographical Look at Joan Ganz Cooney."  I'm quite proud!

I had an author friend of mine say that I'm not an aspiring author, but a pre-published author.  Now I've just got to get a book in that book store with my name on it!

Here are submission deadlines if you're interested in writing an academic article for the Arizona Reading Association:
