I received a wonderful message from Holly in Conifer, Colorado where she is a teacher librarian. Holly read, The Red Jacket, to all 14 classes in her school and also made this super cool Literacy O'Lantern for a school contest. Holly made the fries out of Coconut Sticks from Trader Joe’s and Bobs body out of a gourd! WHAT CAN'T HOLLY DO? Thanks for sending, Holly!
