Sequels for FOUR FEET TWO SANDALS!

This Spring I visited Colfax School in Pittsburgh. Look what I received in the mail after my presentation.

A whole selection of picture books written, designed and illustrated by fourth grade students at Colfax school. Four Feet Two Sandals was the Principal's pick for book of the month(gotta love this school!).

After I visited and read my book and talked about where I got my ideas, some of the students wrote their own sequels to the story. Lovely heartfelt stories and illustrations. One of many ways to extend the reading experience with thought and creativity, inspiration and learning. Bravo Colfax school teachers, librarian, Principal and students!
