Wednesday, April 7, 2010. I have just finished reading the autobiography,. Li Cunxin).what a read! It really made me think about how we can take things (house, family, job, love, opinions, freedom etc) for granted.when there are some people in this world who get beaten (or die) if they even think differently to what the authorities believe.

Thursday, September 24, 2009. I have finally finished. Am I allowed to be disappointed in the final book of the Twilight series?

http://keeny-thebookworm.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 29, 2009. It is book week at school, and today everyone came to school dress up as a book character. We had fairies, Harry Potters, Wizards, Hannah Montanas, plus some traditional characters like Cat in the Hat, Pippy Long Stockings and Moonface. Of course, teachers like to dress up too! I thought we all did a fabulous job dressing up; Winnie-the-Pooh, Bottomly Spots, Gruffalo, Peter Pan, and me - Where's Wally. There was a prize for best teacher's costume.I won! Here is a picture.

A very inspirational read! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I am a school teacher and often find I ...

The Book Worm: Just a brief post...
http://keeny-thebookworm.blogspot.com/2010/06/just-brief-post.html
Friday, June 18, 2010. Just a brief post. Have finished the two Jodi Picoult books.I really enjoy reading her books. Picoult has a real way of writing about controversial topics. Handle with Care was an amazing read (I rate this book and My Sister's Keeper as Jodi Picoult's best books). It tells the story of a family torn apart from the consequences of having a daughter with brittle bone disease. I could not put the book down.and needless to say.I shed a tear or two at the end. Sure, I read to my student...
