I got the privilege of hearing children's author Kimberly P. Johnson speak at conference on Monday. She was excellent. She was really genuine and stands up for the things she believes in. She recited some of her incredible poetry. It was amazing and inspiring. Kimberly puts her whole heart and soul into her work. Here is how she encourages us to move F.O.R.W.A.R.D. in our lives:
F-forget the past
O-optimism
R-reach for the stars
W-willingness to listen and learn
A-avoid the dream stealers
R-reward others with praise
D-don't give up
For more information about Kimberly P. Johnson, her products and how you can get her to speak at your event, go to her website.
Oh, I've had the pleasure of being in Kimberly's audience as well - is she on fire or what? I use her book Tag Along Fred with my preKs and Ks to talk about job shadowing . . . it's cute!
