I have had the privilege of corresponding with Cynthia Lord who lives in Brunswick, Maine about her incredible book, "Rules." Cynthia was kind enough to mail a signed copy of her pre-viewed book and then sent me a hard cover ( also signed.) When one of my students, Steph, did an exceptional book project on Rules, I sent a copy to Cynthia. She wrote to my student (a huge thrill for this budding writer) and commended her on her project as well as Steph's own writing skills. Yesterday, Cynthia's book became a a well deserved Newbery honor winner! The Medal went to The Higher Power of Lucky ( which I haven't read yet). If you haven't read Rules, please do yourself a favor and do so!
