I hope these books find their way into MANY school libraries.mary ann rodmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639787144894232298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-82340279814483956992013-12-02T15:33:41.126-06:002013-12-02T15:33:41.126-06:00Mary Ann, I only am familiar with The Blessing Cup...Mary Ann, I only am familiar with The Blessing Cup, and count all of Patricia Polacco's books treasures.

Both sound like ones we should have, personally or in our library at school.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
