Big Bad Wolf....I bought Da Vinci Code at Costco over the weekend for $15

I just started to read it a few days ago....it's not going to a be a fast read for me, but it's really interesting so far!

Please Stop Laughing At Me by Jodee Blanco. It's a true story of a teen who was terrorized by bullies. It was so sad! As a teacher I'm SO glad I read it. It makes me even more sensitive to those 'on the outside'.

I received I Wish Someone Were Waiting For Me Somewhere by Anna Gavalda. It's a collection of short stories...I just started reading it the other day and so far it's pretty good.

Save Karyn--by Karyn Bosnak, her true story of racking up $20,000 shopping and then setting up a website to ask for donations for her debt!! It was very interesting.

It's funny, when I was growing up I guess I found Mr. Rogers pretty boring, but as I got older (in my teen years, strangely enough), I watched his show a few times and I realized how important he is for children. He was really one of the only childrens TV personalities who talked about feelings, and emotions, and I think there is a lot that can be learned from his wise words. I am glad you're enjoying that book as much as I did. I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone!
