Books Rock!: June 2011
http://booksrockatttu.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. Another Great Read Coming Soon! Heart-Shaped Cookies and Other Stories. Bilingual Review Press; ISBN: 9781931010795; $15.00. Due out in August 2011! This collection of stories is long overdue. If Rice had borrowed this one from me and I was the library, he'd owe me a ton of cash in late fees. Teachers, myself included, have asked Rice to put together another collection that would include stories from his first book,. Give the Pig a Chance and Other Stories. Due out late July.

From earliest draft of a poem or story clear through to the major revisions to minor ones and on to the final edits? Isn’t this exactly what writing a story should look like? What of your students? Or will theirs be a true apprenticeship into what it means to be a writer? René Saldaña, Jr. Matt de la Peña.

René Saldaña, Jr. On Writing, On Reading. Goalie work: Mikah wearing the mitts. A pivotal game for LBK FC 06, the boys are tied and have to go to Penalty Kicks (PKs). Mikah's at the goal and for all intents and purposes, he does a great job. He stopped all but two shots. There is a question about one of the shots our boys took: does it go in or does it not?
