Roland Smith was here!!!!



Roland smith visited Mead this week. He told lots of great stories about working with animals, writing books,and traveling all over the world. He also told us the secret of writing.

What did you learn from his talk?

What are your favorite Roland Smith books?

Which of his books would you most like to see made into a movie?

He told us to write about what matters to us. What matters to you? What stuff would you most like to write about if you could write a book about anything?

Roland Smith was different than I expected but was cool. I learned that writing a book is a longer experience than I thought. I couldn't believe it took him so long to write Cryptid Hunters. I thought that some of the stories he told were cool and most were funny. I hadn't read any of his books, but when he came he convinced me to. So, I read Zach's Lie and it was great! I can't wait to read his other books!

I read a book called So B. It recently. I loved it. It is about a girl named Heidi. Her mom is mentally ill so they live with their neighbor, Bernadette. Her mom can only say 23 words and thinks her name is So Be It. But one word her mom says is not a word. This word (soof) drives Heidi crazy so she finally goes on a long journey by herself to find out what 'soof' means. It is a good book and I recomend it to just about everybody.
