Written By

Sure, I could write something here about how great it's been in the past week to share We Shall Overcome and other books with kids at the Annapolis Book Festival and at St. Elizabeth School in Rockville, Maryland--but sometimes pictures are all a person really needs. . . .Learning about the story behind the song at the Annapolis festivalKids sing their own words to "We Shall Overcome" in AnnapolisFirst graders at St. Elizabeth have lots of ideas about poetryMy favorite poem to perform is about a cricket that jumps inside of a cat's mouth. All you need to know is that "chirp" rhymes with "burp." Lucky me: I got to hear Kwame Alexander read his great new novel-in-verse, "The Crossover," in Annapolis
