I saw someone do a slice during March of haiku for book characters, and I'm thinking about trying that for next Monday's #imwayr post just so I can avoid having to write two blog posts! I am also finding Amy Ludwig VanDerWater's book a wonderful companion this month.Elisabeth Ellingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00747914394861199796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-37984345462834160572018-04-09T19:33:13.813-04:002018-04-09T19:33:13.813-04:00Glad that you made it, even a little late.

Ghosts of Greenglass House (the sequel) was a distraction for me and your wonderful poem reminded me of that. I loved what you said about needing something warm while reading it.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04960920764884687750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-61898869801978817562018-04-08T19:43:37.012-04:002018-04-08T19:43:37.012-04:00It's on our book club list for this year.

I am the last Poetry Friday commenter...and the hostess, so I think we would have a lot to talk about!

Amy is inspiring much writing this month. My students are checking in each day and adding to her padlets. I read and enjoyed Sara Holbrook's The Enemy about a girl who's torn over her growing friendship with a German immigrant just after WWII. I didn't do Must Read this year because I failed so miserably last year. Too many times I was called toward other books.
