I don't know if I ever blogged this and I am not sure why I didn't so I shall mention it now - in March I went in to my son's classroom on the last day before spring break. I read a wonderful book, played a little game and taught them how to make an Origami dog and swan - they loved it! The book I read was Lissy's Friends and it is just delightful! The author, Grace Lin, has a blog and is featured in an interview on jama rattigan's alphabet soup... you can enter to win an autographed copy of her book Year of the Rat! Sorry - but I hope I win - I know a special young lady who will be awarded her black belt in June - I would love to give this to her! Anyway - check it out - have a look at some of Grace Lin's work and by all means - enter the contest!
---> UPDATE: I just knew I had posted about this before... Found it! Here it is!

Looks like a really great book!
My oldest son just got his black belt... huge amount of work involved there. (and I'm WAY glad that test is past now!)
My son has a long way to go to Black Belt - It is a grueling process - but as I tell him - if it was easy - everyone would do it!
