The Peabody School 4th grade class, taught by the gracious Julie Lacy, welcomed me on March 8th to talk about stories and the many ways we can make them. The class had read much of Cats at Sea beforehand, and they were prepared with tough queries and brilliant suggestions! A wonderful time at my own children's alma mater, I'm so grateful to the Panthers for inviting me.

p.s. That front page cat drawing is from one of the fab thank you notes the students wrote to me -- Cecil for sure!
