Today is an exciting day!  It is our 3rd Annual Booking Across the USA trip.  This year a wonderful group of people have joined together to feature authors and illustrators from each of the 50 states.

Meet authors and illustrators from each state in our Booking Across the USA project.  50 books and activities are shared in this great literacy resource!

Each author or illustrator was either born, lived in at one time or currently resides in the featured state. You will discover at least one book written or illustrated by the person as well as an activity or craft to accompany the book(s).

Explore 50 different authors and illustrators from around the United States in this year's Booking Across the USA.

Each day this week I will be featuring posts for each region of the United States.

Meet authors and illustrators from the southwest region in our Booking Across the USA project.

    I love the title of this post, Jodi. 🙂
    Great topic with good book choices. I came here from Crafty Moms Share Saturday link up. However, I’m a fan. 🙂

    What a fun idea! My grandboys love putting together a puzzle of the U.S. Now I can start telling them the literary “crops” from each state!

    Thanks,
