Couragetaker
Bring me all your courage,
Bring me all your bravery
So you can have it when you need it,
To climb a tree. -MC Sugar Loaf Elementary School

No doubt about it, cold weather is here! Anyone for climbing these trees in the Smoky Mountain National Park where we were driving a few days ago? Look at that snow on the ground!
It's time for us to begin giving thanks for the many things that make our lives full of hope and courage, among them our teachers, our authors, and the books we read, the books that may, we hope, change our lives and make us stronger, more imaginative people.
So, here at the end of November I will be begin featuring some of the teachers, authors, and books that make a difference in our lives. I'll begin tomorrow, Monday, with my Thanksgiving feature on ArtPark, in Wilson, NC. This will be a feast of several courses. But make room for dessert!
