On Friday March 29, 2019 the author of “Hotdogs and Hamburgers: Unlocking Life’s Potential by Inspiring Literacy at Any Age”, Rob Shindler spent the day at High Point University. The book was a great read, and all of the education fellows were looking forward this book discussion. It was a rather casual event that made everyone comfortable, and the conversations were more genuine. After talking with Shindler and getting a chance to ask any lingering questions, we all got a better understanding of the personal side to his book. He had a chance to talk about the behind the scenes of this book and continued this story past where the book ended. This personal connection allowed us to enjoy the book in a whole new way which was an amazing experience. The education fellows program gave us yet another connection through this discussion with author Rob Shindler, and we are all really glad to be a part of something so fun and enriching. ~Miss Leah Brown, EDU Fellows Student
