Since I have begun a new journey of writing, I am pleased to announce several of my articles made it to the front page of this very cool magazine, Fortitude.
So now I spend my days going to the library and checking out more books on Reading and Writing Books for Children. I've chosen such a book for my readers for this Friday... Won't you join us?
Rules:
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to this blog Starting Fresh and to Storytime with Tonya and Friends
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Happy Friday and Happy Father's Day to all!
