TheStylingLibrarian’s version of the same day! Enjoy!
Lenore Look visited Bradbury School in November, but she and I agreed to wait and connect our blog posts together so that our readers could enjoy both points of view- an author’s experience visiting a school and a teacher librarian/school’s perspective. Have you read Lenore Look’s Blog before? There are fun glimpses into an author’s life, writing tips, and you can follow her adventures by reading her posts, especially the recent ones on her adventures in China. Some readers already know about Lenore Look visiting Bradbury. I have posted a few times already about Lenore.

My Inner Villager

That’s not me. But I wish it were! Continue reading
New Year’s Hike With Henry David Thoreau
CONCORD, MA — 1 January 2013 — Walden Pond looked so beautiful in the snow that I had to stop by and take a few photos of it before leaving Concord today.
But before you can get to the pond you have to park your car in the lot across the street. It costs five bucks.
Then you walk past the replica of Henry David Thoreau’s cabin.
