So I’ve been working on the bulletin board for the school library which I need to put up tomorrow. The author of the month is Marty Kelley. I love his humor and his illustrations so I decided that the bulletin board should be two (or more…I settled for two when I ran out of time…) giant book covers. When the author of the month is such a talented illustrator, why bother using your OWN creative juices…pilfer away. So I did my best to replicate his book covers in construction paper cutouts. I’m not quite as talented as Mr. Kelley, however, I think the children at the school know his books well enough that I’ll at least get an A for effort.
Unfortunately I wrecked the Winter Woes one’s scarf feeding it through the lamination machine.
I’m hoping “The Rules” one goes through better tomorrow. I also hope it fits…..
Oliver loves The Rules book. He would like to hang this one in his room when they’re done with it at school. We are very fortunate, in that, Marty is coming to Oliver’s school in the middle of April for the writer’s festival. Oliver will probably greet him by sticking a french fry up his nose or something. FANTASTIC!
Alright, I’m off to exercise…it is, afterall, only quarter to 11pm. I really need to get on a normal schedule! Sweet dreams.
