DeleteBest wishes at the conference!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
DeleteSounds like great learning fun! I hope you'll share some new ideas.
ReplyDeleteFor sure!
DeleteI'm sure it will be wonderful Mary Lee. I just went to my favorite Indie bookstore, The Bookies, (other than Tattered Cover) & found another J. Patrick Lewis poetry book to love: Swan Song, about extinct animals who've been neglected as far as story! Looks great. Your lovely wordle has Lewis' name so prominent that I thought I'd share! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that one! (Confession: I have a HUGE collection of JPL books. He's been the visiting author at my schools maybe three times over the years AND he's our hometown hero.)
DeleteMary Lee, thanks for representing us. Wow and wow! Enjoy Dublin. From what I have heard, Ireland honors its poets and poetry.
ReplyDeleteOops! The school district where I teach is in Dublin...OHIO!! We will make sure to carry on the tradition of honoring poets and poetry...on PF in the classroom!!
DeleteOh, I wish I could be there! I'll be following along on Twitter!
ReplyDeleteHave fun, you guys!
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a better ambassador for PF than you, Mary Lee -- in whatever Dublin. :)

ReplyDeleteOh, I bet you guys had a blast! 'Wish I could have been there and heard you. Enjoy this well deserved break, and congrats on TKT!
