I have started using it to create my library book orders! I really like your PPB choice this week. I know kids who like to draw all the time (I was one of those kids!) It is easy to get lost in your own world, but it is important for kids to spend time with their friends, too. A great message delivered in a perfect way. :-)Kellyamtowerkoreneknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007703247358638748.post-71157102061930457342012-02-18T09:19:15.028-05:002012-02-18T09:19:15.028-05:00Congrats to all the winners.
