I've never read this one. Only Little House in the Big Woods, which somehow hypnotized my second graders. I suspect the life described was so different from theirs... And the storytelling is just fabulous. I'll definitely try to get to the Prarie this month.

Great job, Sam!

Yep. Sounds good.

Terrific choice! I love Jennifer Crusie. She's very funny.

So glad you've enjoyed yourself, Linda. :)

:D

Great job, Linda!

BLACKOUT, BABY!!!
WOOT WOOT!!

If you want to re-post at the bottom...

1) You need to be accessing GR online, not via the GR app
2) Go to the finished post. Click "edit" in the locker right corner. Highlight all text and copy.
3) Click "cancel edit" or finished
4) Scroll down to the last post in the thread. Paste your copied info into the box for a new post. Post.

Good luck. I recommend copying rather than cutting, in case you have any trouble... Or are distracted as easily as I am.

They sound terrific. I'll have to check them out.

Yes. Most members will post the list of vowels and fill it in by using the "edit" function.

Thanks! Someone needed to read it for this challenge. Overall, It ended up being a good combination of chunks tears and lighter reading.
