As I was signing their book, mom said to kid, "Honey, wasn't there something you wanted to tell this lady?" The little girl grinned and whispered, "I farted!"Ilima Loomishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15291773793850755404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1337206901491734394.post-3790643832704742102011-01-24T14:11:21.685-05:002011-01-24T14:11:21.685-05:00Oh it's okay, Jan, the worst ones are fun to h...Oh it's okay, Jan, the worst ones are fun to hear too. Mine doesn't quite match up, but it was one of the last days of June so the kids were crazed.

I guess you can look back at those now and laugh, and maybe the stories themselves are worth even more than the paltry 100 bucks you earned.<br /><br />Good suggestions for planning; I'm a teacher, not an author, so I'll keep all this in mind if ever planning an author visit.Keith Schochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04487459160222497971noreply@blogger.com
