Kate, you have tapped into my memory box. After our first daughter (she's now expecting her first child in July) was born, I sat down at our dining room table on two different occasions and the words seemingly just poured out for two different articles, one on establishing rapport in a third grade classroom that was published in School and Community and one on teaching manuscript printing to first graders that was published in Early Years.

I hope everything is going great with your book!
