Good day and welcome to SkidChatter's blog. Our main objective is the discussion of selected literature. We begin with a discussion of the book, "The Trumpet of the Swan", by E.B. White. After this, a simple review or recommendation is greatly appreciated. A brief synopsis would be even better. Enjoy.
Please feel free to solicit book recommendations from your students and post them here. Give the URL to your classes and let the students peruse the book information offerred here.
Thank you.

Chapters 1-7: Word Finder

I found it interesting when I read that a "COB" is what a male swan is called.
My son was looking over my shoulder and asked what "boggy underfoot" meant. I replied; soft, soupy, sticky, wet and kinda sucks your feet in.
