Be Childish
Adora Svitak is a 12 year old girl from Washington who had a dream, and she wasn't willing to wait till she grew up to make it become real. She wanted to show people that she had something that was worth sharing to her generation. She wanted people to see that its not just adults that can come up with children's stories, and really shouldn't children be the ones coming up with children's stories? She was ready to share her gift of writing to everyone, and her parents helped that happen. They talked to many different children book writers, and one said that they don't work with children. If you ask me every children's story writers should work with children. I believe that children do come up with some of the best ideas.

Hey there, Ginger. You did a nice job of incorporating pronouns into today's post. Your funk today may have inhibited your reflectiveness of this post, but the summary of Adora's speech was strong. I challenge you to share more of YOUR voice in your blogs... what are YOUR thoughts? Sing it, sister!
