Deer Chases Middle School Boy
The world is an amazing place. Recently, in Bend, Oregon, a boy befriended a deer only to have the deer follow him during a cross country race. Apparently, the deer was using the boy as a salt lick.
Check out the story and a slide show at his site:

A Reader Named Christian
I met Christian (shown here with his grandmother, Mamie) at the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center where I was signing books. Christian was so excited to meet an author that he wanted to buy all of my books. I recommended Lottie's Courage, since Christian didn't know about contraband slaves. Keep reading Christian. Readers are leaders!

Rome Reborn
Ever wonder what ancient Rome looked like in the year 320? Now you can see a digital model on line that has taken an international team of scholars ten years to build. The technology even allows you to go inside of the Colosseum. http://www.romereborn.virginia.edu/
