I agree with Beth's assessment of "Lawnboy", though - I was rather disappointed in that one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205538229281562484.post-62875800692090150182010-02-05T14:14:05.337-05:002010-02-05T14:14:05.337-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205538229281562484.post-35271266294648141612010-01-31T08:39:48.822-05:002010-01-31T08:39:48.822-05:00Lester Laminack just came to our school last week ...Lester Laminack just came to our school last week and did a wonderful professional development session on how to use picture books to give our students a better understanding of huge historical events that are often the focal point of YA novels. It sounds like from your review, Paulsen, included some of this background information in the novel.
