Around the Web
TLA News! Karen got to meet Laurie Halse Anderson, and it was Epic! Also not jealous about this. Not at all.
Why Corporations Want Our Public Schools
In which I am amazed that 25 years later the teen stars of a movie don’t see how much they were being manipulated. Also, yay for the 25th anniversary of one of my favorite movies! Also, I am old.
Everything in moderation. Even perseverance.
