Jane White, PDB friend, moderator, and author, sent in these pics of her in collaboration with the media specialist at Mayport Middle School in Atlantic Beach, Florida. She was part of a special project to develop a study guide for The Taming of Corky, and then used it with sixth graders as they read the novel. Jane met with the students twice, first as they began reading the novel, and then when they had finished reading it. She answered their questions, and they discussed the characters and their story, culminating in a celebration and pizza party.

Imagine that you've written a story that makes you proud. It has conflict, good, humorous, dialogue and an exciting plot. What if someone steals your idea?
