I read the blog in the morning and then I found this book at my middle school library! It just popped out to me as I was browsing around. Weird, huh? It's a wonderful book and even though my eighth grade students think they are mature and cool, I think they'll be fascinated by this story. I'm going to read it and then allow them the pleasure of making their own flakes. Aren't the connections in the blog world amazing? I think so!

Do you have the entire list of books you've chosen for advent on your site? If you don't would you have time to compile a list so I can get them at our local library?

I enjoy your blog. Thanks for putting all of this together.
