AMC Great Kids, Great Outdoors

January 11, 2013/ Michelle Cusolito

Before the holidays, I was interviewed for the Appalachian Mountain Club's blog Great Kids, Great Outdoors. The post, Fun Ways to Explore Snowflakes With Kids, ran on Tuesday.

I hope you'll hop over there and read it.

I’m looking forward to serving on a panel with these fabulous ladies at #NCTE18 on Friday. Will I see you there? #STEM #STEAM #nonfiction

Please do your civic duty and vote, too. Don’t let early projections make you think it doesn’t matter. Don’t let rain or storms keep you home. Please get to the polls. #gotv

When too many holds arrive at the library at the same time... must read faster. #tbr

Seen on my walk this afternoon. Autumn is here, even though it’s currently 69 degrees F. #nature #nofilter

Future Alvin Pilot. Last night @lindsaymoorestudio tweeted this photo of her kiddo heading out for Halloween. She said “Flying Deep is a very big deal in our house.” I’m not gonna lie, that made me tear up. That is the highest compliment I could ask for: a kid is so excited about my book that he was inspired to make a Halloween costume. @woodshole_ocean... I think this kid will be heading your way in the not too distant future. #STEM #STEAM #thepowerofbooks

.@christinetaylorbutler did a load of research and number crunching. Her results proved what we already felt. Please listen to the podcast. #Kidlitwomen

Puddle reflections near the cranberry bogs today. #nofilter #nature

My husband and I just finished writing a bunch of Postcards to Voters. Hoping to #TurnGABlue

How lucky am I? I get to serve on a panel at #NCTE18 in Houston next month with these amazing women: Maria Gianferrari @pennyandjelly Loree Griffin Burns @loreegriffinburns Jia Liu @lost_jia Sarah Mulhern Gross @saraid23

H.E.R.E. Human Element Range Extender Um… what the heck is that? Oh, nothing… just some props for my school visits. There’s no toilet on board Alvin, so they need a H.E.R. E. like this. I’m not shy. I talk about it. It’s a fact of life when #FlyingDeep inside Alvin. And what’s that blue adapter thingy, you ask? That’s called the “Lady J adapter” so ladies can pee in the bottle, too. @WHOI wants more women (and PoC) to explore #STEM fields. This is a key part of my presentations when I do school visits: yes, ladies, you, too can be an Alvin pilot! #cindyleevandover paved the way. Interested in having me visit your school with these and other cool props? See my website for details. http://www.michellecusolito.com/school-visits/
