The Park
Well, we had an absolutely splendid afternoon at the park, with our celebrity readers and our cool little kid listeners. Good Pal Menosky read about Dumpy LaRue, a porker with passion. Much fun. Thanks, GPM! Our celebration was prompted by some higher test scores from last spring's test, but GPM and I focused on all the great reading and writing we're doing at our school. It was time to have some fun.

Thank you for inviting me.

So true!

I just noticed that little person in the background this morning.
Makes me laugh.
