As a teacher, I thought you might want to know about the debut (last Monday) of The Picnic Basket where school and library professionals taste new and forthcoming children's books with first-come, first-serve sample copies of books for kids of all ages. We send free books. You tell us what y... more

Hi Sue,
You asked why I chose Ohio as the setting for my new novel, ITCH. It's funnny -- Ohio just "spoke" to me (much like the character did, I suppose) -- though I have family there, so that might have influenced my decision. I hope you get to read ITCH and that you enjoy it!

Ok, Your crazy? haha I will figure away to get people to like my books and even like what I have to say about life and how we should live it.

Yeah, I would hope that they do listen, but someone will and I hope it will spread either through the masses or slowly with individuals. i work as a janitor lets just say that I will leave my book behind in a pile of books once it is published in all the schools I go to. Janitor is a temp job. jus... more

Sue,
I taught 9th and 11th graders who were also reluctant readers. I am a part of The Brown Bookshelf and we have several recommendations for reluctant readers that I think some of your students will enjoy. Check us out at http://thebrownbookshelf.com/blog/ where we have put together e... more

The warm weather makes everything better although we had a cold snap recently that really made me think of Cleveland.
Comment by Carla Sarratt on 1/10/2008 at 10:33 AM:
Sue,

I saw your comment in another profile that you are a Cleveland native. I am as well and attended Warrensville Heights Schools, but took my SAT and ACT tests at Shaker Hts. High School.

Miz Browne,
Thanks for signing up to be one of my friends. My motivational program, Shine Through, is a program that helps middle school girls (and now boys) learn how to be themselves and to stop wearing masks to cover up who they really are. They learn examples of how they might be playing s... more
