Guest blogger Robyn Gaudet, 8 years old (ok, less than two weeks to 9 years old!) shares with us her review on:

The Sock Kids Meet Lincoln by Michael John Sullivan and Susan Petrone
.
.
I read a book called The Sock Kids. The sock kids are sock people and why I like it is because it is so FUNNY I just wanted to read all the books over and over!
A little sock named Stretch met Lincoln. Lincoln put Stretch onto his feet and Stretch met a black sock named Meade. They became good friends then Stretch went home.
My favorite part about the story is when Stretch got whirled from the bath tub and got into 1863 and that’s when he met Lincoln.
.
The Sock Kids Meet Lincoln can be bought on Amazon and The Sock Kids can be found hanging out here on WordPress.com.

Exhausted by Sidney Gaudet (9 yrs old)
.
Exhausted is like the color gray.
Like a hungry wolf that spend the whole night looking for food,
Or the soot you cleaned out of the fireplace.
It is like the clouds on a rainy day that woke me from my slumber,
Like the huge rock I tried to bring home.
Exhausted is like a heavy fish on the end of your fishing rod,
Like the smoke that comes from the chimney that you tried to clear all day.
Exhausted is like the cement you got stuck in before it dried and you have been using all your might to get out of,
Like grey eyed people’s eyes after a long day.

Too Many Books by Gilles Tibo
(Illustrations by Bruno St-Aubin)
Start:
He tries to clean his cat. And then he tries to tie his shoes, but he got books and he did that and tied everything into a bow.
Middle:
He went to the library with his neighbour which is his girlfriend because he loves her.
End:
He got his books from the library and read one of the books and he loved it because he laughed!
My favourite part was the end when he laughed with the mouse in the book, and the mouse is out of the book now.

Guest Blogging
Posted in Guest Blog, Words on Writing on January 21, 2010| Leave a Comment »
In October I hosted my friend Pat Bertram on my blog to help her promote her new book Daughter Am I.
I had a great deal of fun doing it. Starting with January 2010, I would like to make hosting a guest blogger a regular monthly feature on my blog. Since I actually have a blog with both BlogSpot and WordPress, this really means hosting two bloggers a month – one on each blog.
If you would like to be a guest blogger on either one in January just drop me a note. First come, first served.
You can blog to promote your book, your blog, your website, or your author’s page. You can blog about writing techniques, trials and tribulations of coming up with and crafting stories, or the writing life in general. Pretty much anything writing related goes. All posts and comments on both blogs are pre-moderated to keep the blogs clean and friendly.
