Anyone familiar with Dr. Celeste Roseberry-McKibbin knows that her work stands out because she is prolific with her publications and research, while at the same time continuing to work with children. Her lectures and materials are on point for those of us working in the field or in the university setting. We sat down to speak with her leading up to our January conference and got updates on the wild success of her literacy initiatives, new thoughts, and new publications.
