Lynne Rae Perkins

Lane Emmons' 7th graders recently finished reading As Easy as Falling off the Face of the Earth by Lynne Rae Perkins. Lynne is best known for her book Criss Cross, which won a Newbery Medal several years ago. Yesterday the students had the chance to Skype with Ms. Perkins and ask her questions about the book and her writing process. It was the first time she had ever done a Skype call with a school and it was fun to be her test case.
