Fun with Granities
Bowers School Readings
On June 17, I visited Pat Ware’s 2nd grade class and Melissa Emmerich’s 5th grade class at Bowers School in Manchester. Reading from The Grandies naturally evolved into a discussion of writing rhymes and the fun and fulfillment of putting pen to paper. It was a wonderful morning of interaction with children who were interesting and interested, charming and welcoming as were Mrs. Ware and Miss Emmerich. I have since received letters and original verses from some of the children and will treasure them forever.
