Back of Book:
When Jody’s grandfather comes to visit, he brings along a packet of seeds for them to plant. Through spring, summer, and fall, Jody watches her plants sprout, flower, and grow lots of beans. Soon, as Jody’s parents await a new baby, Grandpa and Jody are picking the beans – and waiting for next spring.
My Review:
This is one of my most favorite stories to read when discussing seeds and plants. We are getting ready to plant our own seeds in my class so inom will be sharing this book before we plant them. inom love that this story breaks down the growing process. The index in the back of the book allows readers to look for specific areas of planting. The illustrations are soft and capture Jody’s excitement as she watches the plants grow. A perfect read aloud for classrooms or home.

In the fall of 2015, I attended a writing workshop led by the late Brian Doyle. He gave us lots of writing prompts as homework and also gave us his email address because, as he put it, “we’d given him our time so he would give us some of his.” I adore Brian’s rambling, run-on prose poems (which he called “proems”) and decided my homework would be trying to write my own “proem.” After a few weeks, I’d put something together that I thought was fairly decent and emailed it to Brian Doyle.
I waited a grand total of 11 minutes before receiving an answer. He generously said some complimentary words about what I’d written and then suggested I submit my “proem” to U.S. Catholic magazine and gave me the name and email address of one of the editors.
I was delighted but also puzzled. Would anyone care that I wasn’t Catholic? Maybe, I thought, since Catholic Brian Doyle publishes in Protestant magazines, Protestant me can publish in a Catholic magazine.
