Dewey's Read-a-Thon April 2009


Today is the spring read-a-thon! If you have no clue what it is or how to participate, check out the event's blog, Dewey's Read-a-Thon.

I can't participate as a reader this time around (I hope to in the fall), but I plan to be a cheerleader for most of the event.

I hope everyone gets lots of reading done and has a terrific time!

    I'm participating in the event for the first time. Not sure i'll make it all the way through (as I LOVE sleep) but we'll see.

    So as a cheerleader can I expect to see you do cartwheels and be part of the pyramid & stuff? ;-)

    Did you put your hair in a cute high ponytail too?! :)

    I'm cheering off and on today (not officially!), and am determined to join in the fall, if only for a 6-hour readathon.

    You can do it! Get the coffee ready! It would be a dream for me to read non-stop for 24 hours. I'm going to have to plan ahead for the next one, and try to send the husband and the kids away!

    Sandy: I'm hoping to participate next time as a reader. I have too much going on right now to take a full day off and another to recover.

    I have been doing more cheering than reading (I did sign up for both). I'm off to read outside as it is beautiful.

    Mrs.Beth :Do you feel strange? Why, suddenly, there was a Chinese woman to read your blog? I believe that your work is a great and meaningful. And, I hope that the United States, a good book can be recommended to China. Of course, I more want to be your friend, because in the other pages I have seen pictures of you, I have questions to ask you, can I? I would like to be your invitation to read your blog.
    I am a new blog, I am writing, please wait. Because of reading your blog, I began to write, thank you very much.Lilly
