Hello,
John Gardiner visited my school last year. I couldn't have been more
pleased. He talked with the kids about how to write a story--giving a 3 part
formula: wish, struggle, surprise. He was funny, warm, and very uplifting
because of his own journey. As you may know, he was not a reader as a kid.
I'm in a school where almost all the kids are struggling readers. It was
good for the kids AND the teachers to hear what he had to say. I'd invite
him again in a minute. He was terrific!
