Cynthia's Attic, and favorite time-traveler, Augusta Lee (Gus), want to welcome a newcomer to the attic scene - Little Bitty Kitty, or LBK for short.
Gus: So, I hear we’re heading to Indiana the first of December. You, Wendel Wordsworth, me and Cynthia. You’ve never been there right?
LBK: Meow.
Gus: Well, you’re gonna love it. Sure you’re just a little kitty, and it’ll be cold there, like really, really cold, but you have a winter coat, right?
LBK: Meow.
Gus: And this Gram person, the one in your story, is she coming along?
LBK: Meow.
Gus: She seems like a nice lady. Your story is cute, too. The way you wiggle through that little…Well, guess I shouldn’t give away the ending.
LBK: Meow.
Gus And your book is interactive? It has coloring pages? That’s great. I love to color...especially outside the lines!
LBK: Meow.
Gus: Well, guess we ought to start packing for the trip. I’m visiting
Corydon Intermediate School on Dec 3. What school are you going to?
LBK: Meow.
Gus: Oh, yeah,
Corydon Elementary School. Those are some great students. Well, so long for now. See you in Indiana!
LBK: Meow!
Whew! Good thing Gus knows "kitty-speak"!

Happy Earth Day, everyone!
Wendel Wordsworth here.
Are you part of the
Green Generation? I’ve been a member since the day I was born. You guessed it, because I’m a
green worm!
Oh, but I’m part of the
Green Generation in other ways, too. I conserve energy and recycle. Plant trees and pick up litter. I bet you do whatever you can to keep our beautiful world healthy, too.
And how fun to have a special day set aside to remind us of all we can do to
“green up” America. Every little thing makes a BIG difference.
The website
EarthDay.net has a lot of
“green” tips for students like you and me. Here are just a few things we can all do at school:
Flip the Switch!• Make signs or stickers as reminders to turn off lights in classrooms or other spaces when they are not in use.
• Request that energy saving light bulbs be used.
The Hot & Cold of It!
• Ask that room doors be closed to trap heat during winter months.
• Report windows that leak air.
Monitor Monitors!• Check that computers are turned off at the end of each day.
• When not in use, set computers to “sleep mode.”
Recycle!• Start a school recycling program.
• Conserve paper by using both sides.
Won’t you write in and tell us what special things you did on
Earth Day? Do you have a
“green” idea not mentioned here? Let us know!
It’s really not hard being
“green!”

What fun! Visiting Cynthia's Attic...(eew...is that a spider web?!?!) Thanks, Gus, for the invitation to spend a day or so here. There are so many great characters in your book adventures, it's a privilege to share the spotlight! Anyhoo, looking forward to our Southern Indiana road trip...LBK -- (translated to the best of Gus's abilities!)
LBK sure is a talker! The book looks like a lot of fun. Congrats!
