My family of bunnies is in the May High 5 (story by Radha HS). "They were about to start dinner when...The lights went out!"
Speaking of carrot soup, I've been meaning to link to John Segal's site...

Author Visit
I’m watching Jennifer Armstrong on Book TV. She is talking about writing The American Story. It takes place in a bookstore. I’m surprised at how geared to adults this talk is. I expected something different. I thought it would be more about the stories and less about the process.

What Eric W. Leuliette Has Read
via What I Have Read
You can find a list of all of the books that Mr. Leuliette has read (since 1974) listed on his site. (With cover photos and catalog cards too!)
whatihaveread.net/FAQ
Q: Would you please be kind enough to explain the history behind this web site?
A: My mother started keeping the list when I started the first grade. My school asked parents to keep track of what books we read as part of its reading program. She kept the list until 1977 and I've kept the list since I was in the fifth grade.
