I just got pictures back from my visit to the Community School in St. Louis, Missouri. I was invited to be the guest speaker at this wonderful school’s annual Book Show, which was catered by Borders. What a fantastic time we had! This year’s theme was the ABC’s, so the day started with an all-school assembly where the first, third and sixth graders performed lots of alphabet songs. Then, I talked for a few minutes about how you can use the alphabet to save the rainforest. Throughout the day, I met with all the different grades (PK-6) to answer questions and talk about the book-making process. The students asked very intelligent questions, practiced good listening skills, and did a great job singing. And the teachers & parent volunteers all made me feel so welcome. Thank you Community School!
