In March, Brittany Dias, children’s book author, speaker and entrepreneur, visited Buena Vista Elementary School in Auburn, Washington. She visited each classroom to read her book Ava & Mae Own a Lemonade Stand and talk with students about writing stories and publishing a book.
The students were thrilled to meet Dias. Amber Nelson, first grade teacher said, “We’ve been learning about influential women this month. One of my students raised his hand and told Ms. Dias, ‘We are learning about important women like you.’ It was so sweet. My kids were in awe of her.”
