Reader Comments
The best thing about Nancy
Roberts' stories are the way the stories were told. She
had
a true story-teller's voice and her tales stayed
with you.
She made you
laugh.
She made
you cry.
She
shivered your
timbers.

I hope teachers
and librarians in the Carolinas will read this . . . Nancy
---------------------------------------Hello,
Nancy! It was good to see you at the book signing in Charlotte. I read Blackbeard's Cat and loved it. I am
going to buy 2 multi-copy sets so the 3rd grade teachers can use
them a classroom reading units. I came right home and applied for a
grant that I feel sure we will get. The winners will be announced in
November. If the grant comes through, we are going to do a reading
and writing unit with all third grade students. I will buy enough
copies of your various titles that are in paperback, so that we can
give each of our 130 third graders one to take home when the unit is
completed.
We will spend two weeks reading as many of
your tales as we can with the children. Then we would like to have
you visit. After your visit, we want to send the children out into
their communities to collect some of their own folklore -- ghost
stories and other. We can then use our school computer lab to let
them type in the stories and scan in pictures that they draw into a
booklet. We can use our digital camera to add pictures of the people
who contribute the stories; these, too, can be scanned into our
booklet. We are very excited and are making our plans just like we
already have the money in hand!
