Deconstructing penguins
Sitting around the pool. Kids swimming with friends while I attempt to read “Deconstructing Penguins” by Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone.

I’m part of a language arts team at our local HS cooperative in the fall, so I’m looking at various resources out there. Interesting book..
