My extended family is going through a rough time right now (not Mom – she’s fine), so posting will be sporadic this week.
I received a nice link from a teacher in IL who featured some classroom ideas for SPEAK on her blog.
Publicist Deborah Sloan has a few review copies of CHAINS available (scroll down to the Sept. 4th entry).
If you can’t score an early copy, you can read what professornana thinks of CHAINS, or what Alissa the Teen Services librarian has to say about it.
Oh, and Reading Rants weighs in with a CHAINS opinion, too.
Hope things turn out well for your family.
Thanks for the classroom ideas. I haven’t looked at it in depth, but I’m bringing the website to my grad class tonight (since we are devoting many 6 hour classes to this book).
Sorry to hear about your family. My prayers will be with them.
Postcard
I wanted to say thank you for the postcard you sent me. I’m the girl who sent you a letter back in July about SPEAK. It just made my day to put it simply. I really hope you at least consider to come to Northern California on your spring book tour. It would be an honor to meet someone I idol so much.
