Hello, and welcome to my space! I'm a retired elem./middle school special/regular education teacher. I'm trying to find out if an old dog can still be taught new (writing) tricks! Most of my writing is for children. My goal is to write a group of poems that could be put in a booklet for my great nieces and nephews, and any children I choose to "adopt". I hope you enjoy what I've written, and I would certainly appreciate reviews.
