THINGS TO DO IF YOU ARE A PENCIL
By Elaine Magliaro
Be sharp.
Wear a slick yellow suit a
and a pink top hat.
Tap your toes on the tabletop,
listen for the right rhythm,
then dance a poem
across the page.
Thank You

Elaine, this podcast is wonderful. It’s so great to hear your voice and to hear the conversation about Things to Do. Thank you so much for sharing. I love how smart and sensitive kidlit is. Your book is a perfect example. And, Matthew is spot on with his analysis.
