I enjoy visiting schools and talking with students about how a novel grows from an idea to a finished book, about World War II, the setting for The Victory Garden; about how life was different and about reading and writing. I use audio PowerPoint and love having discussions and questions from the students.
Some schools show me wonderful creative projects and art work related to victory gardens. Here are a few. My photos scarcely do them justice, but do have a look! You can click on each picture to make it larger.
