They wrote a book and they were published....

Rylie had her 2nd book published this year and Jackson had his 1st book published. It is crazy how smart my kids are, I mean who knew?
ok, so my kids are smart, but so are the 220 other kids who write books at their school. They have a program at the Elementary where the kids can write a book and get it published. It is pretty darn cool! Only those that want to do it can. It is not a requirement. This was Rylie's second year to do it and Jackson's first. They literally write it themselves and draw the illustrations and then I type it and send it in to the school where they have a company that publishes the books. They have a reception at school and the kids are recognized and handed their published books in front of their parents. This year Rylie's book was called "Dog and Cat Go On A Blueberry Hunt". Jackson's was "My Adventure To A Dallas Cowboy's Game". They really are cute and the kids worked hard on them. Who knows maybe someday you will see a book at Barnes and Noble written by my really really smart kiddos!!!!!
