It is not in the *Back to School* or *September* book totes. Perhaps I gave the book to grandson, Henry Owen.

Some of my favorites are Kevin Henkes' books, especially OWEN, in which the main character is faced with the prospect of giving up his beloved blanket when he goes to school.Patricia Tohthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06878871084215411303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295379888006925064.post-88652726787691602312014-08-18T19:59:46.048-04:002014-08-18T19:59:46.048-04:00Appreciation for opening up your shelves & boo...Appreciation for opening up your shelves & book bags for Back to School & September Garden Girl Suzy. Chester Raccoon & his Mom are my fave for kissing away the jitters. And your daughter-in-law Candon is totally adorable with her heartfelt hand-painting (could be sticker) love art. I saw other old friends such as Late Bloomer Leo in the titles & new title friends I've just begun to get to know thru this article. <br />Thank you so much for sharing sweet Boomer's image, too. Whether it's this week or a bit later, it is truly time to be thinking clean desks, new teachers, new classrooms & new BOOKS.jan godown anninohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091996699597066230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295379888006925064.post-14055858634093345172014-08-18T16:56:59.354-04:002014-08-18T16:56:59.354-04:00Tina: There are so many outstanding back to schoo...Tina: There are so many outstanding back to school themed books, as you well know.

Pa Perry & Oma Sue love their seven, sweet grandkids. So, we have something else in common, correct? Pets with the same name of Boomer! How cool is that! Make sure Boomer and Iris are given extra treats today.Garden Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381204646734686433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295379888006925064.post-87971945405127435172014-08-18T11:58:15.550-04:002014-08-18T11:58:15.550-04:00I love back-to-school books and have a collection ...I love back-to-school books and have a collection as well from my teaching days.
