there is a new marcel the shell with shoes on.
i could NOT wait to tell you all.
i ordered the book, too.
i love marcel
mostly because he is so unexpected
last year i read the sound of a wild snail eating
last summmer i heard two wild slugs eating.
two students are working on books: one just made two star books.
the rainbow ribbon?
recycled from a present given me by a dear friend.
she sat for the g.e.d. recently,
we're waiting for the news.
and some leaves have found home for the winter.
they're waiting for snow.
it's fifty degrees out.
that's how this week has been.
that's how this week has been.
Tomorrow I is the beginning of final projects in both of my classes, yikes time spirals on.

ReplyDeleteOMG!!!! Marcel the shell...TOO amazing!!! thanks for sharing. It was just what I needed.
ReplyDeleteMerissa's law - it happens to a lot of kids, too true. One of my friends made a book out of manilla folders which had been variously eaten by snails - she collaborated with snails from her garden.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful rainbow star.

ReplyDeletekaite, these two are loving the book structures.
I know that feeling! Lots of inspiration today in bookbinding workshop... now its up to them to make images and fill a book, they are excited. We have gluey bone folders after today... :(
