Such an awesome collection. I can't wait to hear how it goes! I hope to do the same thing for our school when the time is right but worry that I might be too "close" to the subject or too emotional and scare the kid away :)

ReplyDeleteYou'll have to tell us more details about how presentation went--what kind of questions kids asked etc.
