Dusti Bowling was so awesome, we just had to do TWO posts! 🙌📚
She led three dynamic, all-grade presentations and then spent a class period with Mrs. Rihn’s 7th-grade ELA class—bringing along skeletons of desert animals and answering a ton of thoughtful questions from students! 🦴🌵
To top it off, Dusti had lunch with Mrs. Jones and the students who had read Canyon’s Edge and Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus. They played bingo, decorated cactus cookies, and had some amazing conversations—she was fully engaged with every student and made the day unforgettable! 🎉🍪🎲
10/10 speaker and an even more incredible human being. We’re so grateful to OSF and our amazing Oakdale parents who helped make this opportunity possible. THANK YOU! 💜

We had an amazing visit from author Dusti Bowling on Monday!📚✨
She spoke to our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders with incredible enthusiasm, sharing highlights from the 11 books she’s written—and even gave us a sneak peek into a few that haven’t been published yet!
Not only was Dusti engaging, but she also guided each class through the step-by-step process she uses when writing and publishing a book. Her message about how her characters grow and change throughout their stories was both empowering and inspiring! 🌟
She reminded students that they are truly capable of big things—even when they might not believe it themselves. 💫
What an unforgettable visit full of encouragement, creativity, and motivation!
Thank you, Dusti, for encouraging our students to dream big and write bravely! 🖊️📖
