[LM_NET] Share: Author Visit ~ Kimberly Willis Holt

[Chris Evans <cevans@CUSD220.LAKE.K12.IL.US>]

Hi all,

Our all-school summer read was Zachary Beaver Came to Town.  As a culminating 
activity, Kimberly Willis Holt came to speak with our students.  She was wonderful.
Our kids were such good listeners because she was such a good speaker.  Even our 
8th graders were great.... and as those of you who are in middle school know.... 
they can be a tough crowd.

If you're looking for an author who can really keep students' interest, think about 
inviting Kimberly.
She also does a super job of describing the writing process.

Readingly yours,
Chris
