Here is what one middle school teacher had to say about Lisa's Skype visit with her 7th and 8th graders: Lisa Skyped with my classes last year, and I can't tell you how much she inspired them! They still talk about it, and a handful of really passionate students attempted their own verse novels at the end of the school year.
