Book Character Day

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

Here’s an idea for a get-together that is both fun and educational. It’s Book Character Day. My daughter is taking part in one today. Each child dresses up like their favorite book character. With book in hand, each child comes dressed up and ready to view and review an assortment of books and costumes!

Games and snacks could be included to make it extra special.

My daughter is the little fox from Little Fox Goes to the End of the World.

Little Fox Goes to the End of the World is actually a great book choice for a unit study for the elementary grades. Many paths could be taken in the direction of winds, sea, sailing, and animals!

Enjoy!

Music

My playlist is still here! It's just not set to autoplay. So those of you who love listening to beautiful music while you read, go all the way to the bottom of the page and click the play button.

About Lynn

I am a 40-something-year-old mother of four delightful children, have been married for 22 years to my carpenter husband, and live in a 1921 farm-style house. I find the most joy in my garden, growing and harvesting herbs and flowers and caring for our delightful bunnies.

I have a 21-year-old son, an 18-year-old son, a 15-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly (and very funny) 11-year-old daughter who is homeschooled.

I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I'm a book lover, bird lover, gardener and aspiring herbalist. I seek no help for my thrift store addiction. I do medical transcription from home part-time.

My Symphony

To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
