Every Saturday I get to read books to little kiddos at the library, and they're so cute! A lot of them are kindergarten age or younger, and they get really into the stories. We read Where The Wild Things Are and afterwards we put on some music and had a wild rumpus right in the little play area! They asked if we could make Wild Thing masks next week, and I think it sounds like a great idea, so I'm going to talk to Ms. Shelton, the Childrens' Librarian, to see if it's something we can make happen.
I saw the movie verson of Where The Wild Things Are this week, because it's supposed to be going out of theaters soon and I really wanted to see it. I was really surprised that it wasn't a kid's movie at all. It was mainly for adults, I think. The movie was really sad, and very thought-provoking. I went to see it by myself after class, and I'm kind of glad I did, because it really made me cry.
It was totally unexpected... but I kinda loved it a whole lot. But it really made me feel like a grown-up... like I'm not a kid anymore.
