Snow day, part 2!

We've had the past SIX school days as snow days.  Wow!  Needless to say, I've done lots of cleaning, organizing, & reading.  I took a bagful of books to trade at the used book store today, and only came home with Silly Street by Jeff Foxworthy ($1), Or Give Me Death by Ann Rinaldi ($1.75), & Incantation by Alice Hoffman ($2).  I was happy!  I started Or Give Me Death right away & immediately wished for another snow day so I could finish!  All my other new books I want to read I took to school to share with my classes, and then it snowed (& snowed & snowed...).

Cheryl and I have a busy few weeks coming up filled with author goodness!
Next Wednesday: Kimberly Brubaker Bradley begins the first of five visits to school and works with the 4th & 5th graders
January 29th: King College stage production of Bridge to Terabithia and Katherine Paterson lecture afterwards
March 1 & 2: Sara Holbrook visits 6th, 7th, & 8th graders
