  3. Hello, I too couldn't find your nonfiction monday post today, so I apologize also for my late arrival. I'm joining in for the first time -- I'm a huge Anastasia Suen fan (and of all her books, blogs and classes) and learned about Nonfiction Monday through her. Thanks so much for letting me join in. My post is about Dave the Potter by Laban Carrick Hill and illustrated by Bryan Collier.

  8. Thank you for hosting today!

    I have chosen to highlight Washington, DC's Cherry Blossom Festival - I guess I needed cheer amidst the gloom outside today; I also hope the items listed will be helpful in planning for a spring session on this very special time in DC!

  11. Tricia, I'm so sorry to hear about your back. It's awful to go through, and must be hard as your new semester gets underway.

    Thanks for hosting. I hope you recover soon.
