Scars from the Tornado headed for Joplin retail outlets today

If everything works out as planned, the new book Scars from the Tornado: One Year at Joplin East Middle School will be on sale in Joplin retail outlets today.

After school, I plan to deliver books to Changing Hands Book Shop in Joplin, which has always been the first store I put my books in and Always Buying Books. Other retail outlets will be added in the coming weeks.

The book features stories from EMS students and from me detailing the time from the May 22, 2011, Joplin Tornado through the end of the first year in our warehouse school.
