My sister did her report on our dad & I wanted mine to be different but didn't respect my mother's role enough (she was a stay at home mom). Now that I'm a stay at home mom who sometimes works, I have a whole new level of respect & appreciation for it. I think Mo Willems was a wonderful choice for your daughter's report!Marlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201084408877994118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-49009184838628389032016-03-01T11:47:48.953-06:002016-03-01T11:47:48.953-06:00Thanks for all the nice comments! My daughter'...Thanks for all the nice comments! My daughter's report really made me think. I wouldn't have questioned if my daughter featured an adult writer, or "serious" children's writer, but I think the humor is part of it. How can you be important if you are funny? And yet the ability to laugh is so important, and the ability to make others laugh is a gift.Kell Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18089691866850131698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-21529051857616834012016-03-01T11:43:32.809-06:002016-03-01T11:43:32.809-06:00Aw thanks, Mirka :)Aw thanks, Mirka :)Kell Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18089691866850131698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-23447606651650420022016-03-01T11:31:49.777-06:002016-03-01T11:31:49.777-06:00Oh, Kell-- I'm framing this post.
